Bret Easton Ellis\u2019 1991 novel American Psycho, about a 1980s Wall Street serial killer, is one of the sickest acts of American satire I\u2019ve read, and Mary Harron\u2019s 2000 movie adaptation starring Christian Bale as Patrick Bateman nails the book\u2019s tone while excising some of its most graphic violence. This week Yasmin and I ask: What is American Psycho really about? Is Bateman an aberration, or a perfect representation of American masculinity? What does it take to \u201cfit in\u201d a psychotic society?
