I read the book in junior high school. I got three Jay McInerney books at the library’s discard sale. (edit - the town library, not the school library ) $3 for a paper grocery bag and as many books as you could put in it. The one scene I remember is when he dissolved a woman’s body in the alley with lye. I was disappointed that wasn’t in the movie.

No recollection of the starved rat?

Hm, no. I don’t have a very good memory sometimes and this is going back 25-some-odd years.

That’ll do the trick.

See, I conflated Bret Easton Ellis with a completely different author. Now I’m questioning the entire narrative of exactly when and how I came to read it.

I guess it was okay. I saw it like 15 years ago, but never felt a need to rewatch it.
