    The Skinny On Christian Bale

    The best actors tend to immerse themselves in a role, on some occasions, so much so that they actually turn into the character right before our widening eyes. When I was watching "The Dark Knight" I completely forgot I was watching Heath Ledger's portrayal of the The Joker, I was just watching the Joker terrorize Gotham City. It's not only the way they walk or they way they talk, sometimes it is the personal sacrifices an actor makes to deliver the most memorable of performances as our favorite characters. Whether it be time away from their family, studying the most difficult of subject matter, or losing and gaining large amounts of weight.

    Actors who have gained and lost immense amounts of weight for some memorable roles include; Robert Deniro, Tom Hanks, Matt Damon, Renee Zellweger, and Christian Bale, just to name a few. Bale lost 63 pounds to portray insomniac Trevor Reznik in 2004's "The Macchinist" and then gained 100 pounds within a period of five months for his role as Bruce Wayne in "Batman Begins". He is at it again as evidenced by recent photos taken of the actor on the set "The Fighter" which is filming in and around Boston. Bale is playing a drug addicted boxer named Dickie Eklund. He has an uphill climb when it is time to put on the cape and cowl again for "Batman 3".
