See this film: American Psycho @fter midnight at the Coolidge

 David Cronenberg's depiction in Cosmopolis of a passive, limo-encased master of the universe makes one nostalgic for the days when such ruthless tycoons wielded chainsaws. In Mary Harron's lacerating, hilarious adaptation of Bret Easton Ellis's unfairly maligned American Psycho (2000), future Bruce Wayne Christian Bale electrifies as the title psychopath, Patrick Bateman, who may or may not be turning his specialties of mergers and acquisitions into "murders and executions."

Coolidge Corner Theatre, 290 Harvard St, Brookline | Friday, August 31 and Saturday, September 1 @ midnight | $9 | 617.734.2501 or coolidge.org
