So What Really Happened To Paul Allen?
I personally have thought about this ending for years and every time I watch the film I seem to agree on a different side of the argument but as of right now i'm siding with yes, Bateman did kill all of those people. It makes sense that he would with his lack of empathy and emotions he has the perfect foundations to be a killer. His pointless jealousy was what drove him to the edge to kill someone he viewed as somewhat of an equal, unlike the hookers and homeless. However as we have seen throughout the film no one really knows one another and characters mixed each other up all the time so did Bateman really kill Paul Allen? Or another man. Did the lawyer really have dinner with Paul Allen? these are the questions we should be asking. and even if Bateman did kill Paul Allen no one really cares because everyone is more concerned with themselves and their petty jealous. But truly i think the ending of this movie is subjective and reflects the viewers view on the world and society.
