I am a reluctant fan of both Ryan Murphy and Bret Easton Ellis for completely different reasons. But they don’t really strike me as two men whose work would go together well. But I guess we’re about to find out with The Shards.
Ellis is known for his work like American Psycho and Less Than Zero. The issue with Ellis is that many of us (myself included) think that adaptations of his novels fair better than the novels themselves. With American Psycho, Mary Harron and Guinevere Turner brought a necessary nuance to the story that Ellis’ novel lacked.
