10 Things You Didn't Know About American Psycho

2. Bale Plotted The Sex Scenes In Detail

Okay, there€™s space for one more odd fact about Christian Bale€™s American Psycho preparation before it€™s time to wrap things up. You know all of the sex scenes in the movie? They€™re more meticulously planned than you might think. With Mary Harron, Bale watched X-Rated films to research how to stage the sex scenes just right. So the next time you have an awkward moment at work involving your boss, just be thankful that you don€™t need to watch porn together. The weirdness didn€™t stop there, either. According to the DVD commentary, Bale even made stick figure drawings to explain the positions he thought would work best for the first threesome scene. It€™s probably same to assume that they weren€™t as gruesome as Bateman€™s drawings, though.
