À propos de cet audio
In this episode, we dive deep into American Psycho, exploring how the film serves as a chilling warning about the dangers of conformity, repression, and the destruction of authentic self-expression. Through Patrick Bateman’s descent into madness, the film critiques the sterile, corporate culture that rewards material success while eroding personal identity. We discuss Bateman’s internal struggle, his violent outbursts, and the concept of the "shadow self" as explored by psychologists Carl Jung and Charles Cooley. American Psycho serves as a stark reminder of the consequences of living a life of appearances, and the toll it takes on one's mental and emotional health.
