Edward Norton Wants To 'Unsettle' Audiences

Edward Norton has admitted that he hopes people feel 'unsettled' after watching his movies.

The actor is back on the big screen later this year with his new movie Stone, a film which reunites him with actor Robert De Niro and director John Curran.

Speaking to the San Francisco Chronicle the actor said: "What I learned going through the experience on 'Fight Club' is that you've got to chill out about whether people like it five minutes after they saw it.

"A tough film sometimes is going to leave people feeling a little unsettled at the end, or uncertain, or whatever. And over time, they come to appreciate that."

Norton starred alongside Brad Pitt in Fright Club back in 1999 a movie that has gone on be a major cult hit and the most famous movie of Norton's career.

"One of the things I love about it is many, many women and men relate to it. It was never intended to be a guy's film at all.

"In fact, I think that one of the things that was frustrating to us at the time was that the studio that put it out didn't have faith in some ways that it was funny, that it would be accepted as satirical. They treated it as this guy's action kind of thing, which it's so not."
