Loneliness creates madness

Suzanne 2021-10-13 13:07:47

This is a black society satire that describes urban life in the United States in the late 1980s. Bateman is a favorite of Wall Street, a hot stockbroker, handsome, charming, and humorous in conversation. He is a young and promising man who makes countless dollars for his clients every day. But when night fell, the boundless terror of darkness awakened the other side of Bateman's dual character. He kidnapped the prey one by one to his luxurious apartment, tortured little by little, watching the blood slowly pouring out, the prey dying in pain, and an inexplicable pleasure attacked him.

He is a handsome Wall Street elite, narcissistic and sensitive compared to everything, doing his best to show perfection, from dressing to every word and deed, everything is exquisite to impeccable. It's just a standard performance social life, and the vanity and vanity indulging in materialism can't solve his inner sense of loneliness and alienation. The human heart, who has nowhere to relax under the torrent of material desires, sinks into the abyss of mania and emptiness. Only after madness can he return to normal and continue his prudent middle-class life during the day.

American Psycho quotes

  • Patrick Bateman: Do you like Phil Collins? I've been a big Genesis fan ever since the release of their 1980 album, Duke. Before that, I really didn't understand any of their work. Too artsy, too intellectual. It was on Duke where Phil Collins' presence became more apparent. I think Invisible Touch was the group's undisputed masterpiece. It's an epic meditation on intangibility. At the same time, it deepens and enriches the meaning of the preceding three albums. Christy, take off your robe. Listen to the brilliant ensemble playing of Banks, Collins and Rutherford. You can practically hear every nuance of every instrument. Sabrina, remove your dress. In terms of lyrical craftsmanship, the sheer songwriting, this album hits a new peak of professionalism. Sabrina, why don't you, uh, dance a little. Take the lyrics to Land of Confusion. In this song, Phil Collins addresses the problems of abusive political authority. In Too Deep is the most moving pop song of the 1980s, about monogamy and commitment. The song is extremely uplifting. Their lyrics are as positive and affirmative as anything I've heard in rock. Christy, get down on your knees so Sabrina can see your asshole. Phil Collins' solo career seems to be more commercial and therefore more satisfying, in a narrower way. Especially songs like In the Air Tonight and Against All Odds. Sabrina, don't just stare at it, eat it. But I also think Phil Collins works best within the confines of the group, than as a solo artist, and I stress the word artist. This is Sussudio, a great, great song, a personal favorite.
