yet as soon as he's faced with someone
in the same social hierarchy as him his
whole demeanor changes reverting back to
the polished and plastic person he was
when talking about social justice this
theme of patrick without the mask is a
hilarious sideswipe of the post-modern
corporate culture where the most
outrageous behavior comes from those
preaching social justice the most it's
exactly the life these sociopathic
hollywood executives and politicians
live preaching to the public these
flimsy platitudes all whilst being the
most morally bankrupt people of all
because you're a hillary supporter yeah
i am a hillary supporter and they know
that if sexual assault allegations
exposed a dark reputation
the movie mogul had long tried to hide
harassment
sexual abuse of women is a widespread
pervasive issue the independent
investigation has concluded
that governor andrew cuomo
sexually harassed multiple women
and in doing so violated federal
and state law however in american psycho
this is representative of bateman
watching porn murdering people having
affairs with drug-added women
again you're dating the biggest dickweed
in new york
which leads on to one of my favorite
scenes of the film the hilarious card
scene where no one can recognize each
other where everyone's card is exactly
the same where everyone has exactly the
same job titles because everyone is the
same everything is trying to fit into
the sterile environment devoid of
authenticity and personality they only
see each other's facades that has
manifested out of conformity and
cowardice
ellen has mistaken me for this [ __ ]
marcus halberstram it seems logical
because marcus also works at pnp and in
fact does the same exact thing i do
marcus and i even go to the same barber
although i have a slightly better
haircut the slightest difference has
become so important in this world where
natural behavior is dissolved that
patrick almost has a nervous breakdown
over paul allen's business card peaceful
thickness op-ed
oh my god
it even has a watermark
[Music]
to release this pent-up anger and
borrowed up frustration patrick goes out
to find a homeless man in order for
patrick to reaffirm his ego and assert
his place in the social hierarchy bateman
love simple rates the homeless man
before bruce lee stabbing him to death
you know bad you smell eureka [ __ ] do
you know that
[Music]
bateman's public mask is becoming too
heavy to handle as the culture and
lifestyle of postmodern new york is
becoming unbearable for bateman and i'd
argue this is what the film is trying to
tell us it's a warning of how toxic
corporate culture saturates our psyche
and most importantly stunts our
emotional development the absurdity of
this post-modern lifestyle is then
perfectly summed up at the christmas
party where everyone looks the same and
is only caring about business
hey hamilton have a holly jolly
christmas is alan still handling the
fisher account where patrick bateman is
disgusted by how disconnected and
neurotic the party is and at this point
he can't help but let his mask slip
patrick you're such a grinch what does
mr grinch want for christmas
and don't say breast implants again
patrick goes over to paul allen and
invites him for dinner paul agrees but
only on the condition that he wants to
meet patrick's fiance while bateman only
wants to meet paul allen for his own
personal agenda however throughout the
dinner as they become more and more
inebriated the mask slips off for both
