Blog #2 Stock characters

I recently watched the film Fight Club, not for the first time, but again because I plan on reading the book soon. In the film, there was a stock character named Lou, who owned the place "Lou's" in which Tyler Durden held his Fight Club. He has a very small role in the film, but when he is introduced, you immediatley get a sense of a mobster, or someone to that tone. He is a burly man wearing a suit, and has a guard with him at all times of the film. He is very agressive, and has a very intimidating voice. He seems to be the dominant figure, and he shows this but attacking Tyler when he refuses to leave the basement of "Lou's". You don't get much on his personal, or background life, but you don't need it because the film makes him out to be the dominant agressive type of person, and his appearance is in sync with the personality feel.
