American Psycho -vostfr- -

"American Psycho" is a psychological horror film directed by Mary Harron, based on the 1991 novel of the same name by Bret Easton Ellis. The film stars Christian Bale as Patrick Bateman, a wealthy investment banker with a dark secret: he leads a double life as a serial killer. Plot Summary The film is set in 1980s Manhattan and follows Patrick Bateman (Christian Bale), a 26-year-old investment banker. On the surface, Bateman appears to live a life of luxury and success, but he secretly murders people he considers to be inferior. The story unfolds through Bateman's narration, which contrasts sharply with the actions he takes.

Bateman's victims include his business rivals, random people he encounters, and those he perceives as threats to his status. His murders are graphically depicted but are often intercut with mundane activities, such as going to a restaurant or a business meeting, blurring the lines between reality and fantasy.
