For lunch, besides eating, I was watching American Psycho. A year 2000 movie but with a setting in the 80s. It's definitely an R-rated movie. Not a good idea to watch it during lunch.



It's about this young man. Good-looking, ive-league-schooled with a career in an investment company in Manhattan. But he's often jealous of anyone who is better than him. He's even jealous when his colleagues have better business cards. There's one scene where everybody swings out their business cards like a gun, trying to show that who's better. So, he murders anyone whom he feels as a threat. He also murders the prostitutes he brings home. Perhaps the expectation of making oneself better than the rest in every possible way can make u crazy.



But of course, there are other ways that could turn someone into a vicious murderer.
