NECRO 232 AMERICAN PSYCHO

This week, we discuss the modern classic AMERICAN PSYCHO.  Based on the Brett Easton Ellis novel, this film was controversial when it came out in 2000 largely due to it’s themes of misogyny and overall cynical point of view.  At the time, Christian Bale was a relatively unknown actor and was advised against taking the role because it may prove to be “carer suicide” but the actor believed in the vision of director Mary Harmon and delivered a performance that put him on the map and propelled his career forward.
