16.12.25, 20:30, American Psycho (2000)
Patrick Bateman seems to have the perfect life: a prestigious Wall Street job, tailor-made Valentino suits, a stunningly beautiful fiancée and more money than anyone could ever need. But behind this glossy façade lies a darkness that even his intense twelve-step skincare routine cannot hide. The real Bateman is a serial killer whose fuse could blow at any moment.
Mary Harron's American Psycho, based on the controversial novel by Bret Easton Ellis, needs no introduction. The film launched Christian Bale as a Hollywood star and, some 25 years later, remains eerily relevant. What began as a scathing satire on the materialistic Wall Street culture of the 1980s reads today as an equally sharp commentary on the toxicity of internet hustle culture. So warm up those hips with some Huey Lewis & The News and come and compare business cards at this disturbing but irresistibly entertaining finale to Film-Plateau's autumn programme.
This screening will be introduced by film researcher Atalya De Cock.
