Episode 73: American Psycho (2000)
Wall Street, Yuppies, Consumerism, Masculinity, and murderous psychopathic outbursts? We're topping off March with a BIG episode, with a production almost as maddening as the film itself: We're talking Mary Harron's 2000 adaptation of AMERICAN PSYCHO!
Join as we look at the rise of author Bret Easton Ellis, and how his super controversial novel shook up the literary community, and created a figure of American iconography in the form of Patrick Bateman! Learn how Donald Trump and the rise (and fall) of Yuppie culture created this cult classic. Special guest host Sydney Gavrielov joins in one of our deepest dives to date!
As always, rate, like, subscribe, and don't just stare at it, eat it!
