    In the movie 'The International' a character gets part of his ear shot off. This reminded me of another film in which a main character lost part of his ear. I can't remember the film, though. Which one was it?

    		In the movie "Chopper", Mark (Chopper) Read asked a buddy to hack his ears off to get transferred out of a dangerous division in prison. Is that the one?

    		I don't think it was any of these. However, I think I remember it being a chunk out of the top part of the ear and I also think I remember a joke being made about in one of the following scenes.

    		Fight Club: She also designed an extra to have a chunk missing from his ear, for which she cited Mike Tyson's bite as inspiration.
