My question is why Bale would want to sign on to another film that is going to require a physical transformation. I mean, when is enough going to be enough? The Machinist, Rescue Dawn, The Fighter, they all required Bale to lose a really unhealthy amount of weight. Am I missing any or was that it? Sure performances like this naturally garner a lot of attention and acclaim, but to go for it so many times seems dangerous. How much more of this has to go on before we start adding Bale to our dead pools? Are little golden statues and a bunch of pats on the back really worth repeatedly risking your health? I think he should take a couple years and look for some more roles where his character works out regularly and eats right. Just a suggestion.
