this Mary Harron film has always been important to me for many reasons, including these:

  1. It’s a hilarious rolled-up magazine across the nose of Bret Easton Ellis
  2. Christian Bale is a scary funny comedian, which you might not otherwise ever find out
  3. It is a gift that just keeps evolving in different ways, like for instance how much more satisfying it is now that the guy who gets axed is Jared Leto
