Movie: American Psycho

Interpretation:
One thing I noticed in support of the premise that all the yuppies can't tell each other apart is that near the beginning, Paul asked the protagonist (misinterpreted as Mark H.)how Cecelia is doing. Then at the end, the lawyer asks the protagonist (this time misinterpreted as Davis) how Cecelia is doing.

The wives get mixed up amongst them just as much as the yuppie men get confused.

So I guess this supports both previous arguments, that Batemen is so generic that everyone mistakes stuff about him for someone else's (his name and his wife). Or on the flip side, it just supports that concept that everyone is generic and can't be told apart. Another example, "Is that Ivana Trump?"
