For those that dont know, Christian Bale lost 60lbs and dropped to a weight of 121lbs for his role in the Machinist. I have seen the movie already and It is VERY good but it is continually astonishing to see him THAT thin during it. Especially when you compare it to his shape in American Psycho (When he gained about 20lbs of muscle).

All in all - good interview =)

oh my gosh! WOW, how did he lose, did he just eat a few peas or what? I love him an American Psycho, especially when he would play the 80's music, that was funny. I guess I will have to go see this one . . .

It's the funniest psycho seen in American Psycho when he's killing that guy to Huey Lewis and the News.

He still was thin to begin with. He looks disgustingly *Halocaust* skinny in The Machinist tho!

guys i'm wondering what kind of side effects will him having played this role have? Will he get back to this previous size? will he obtain some type of eating disorder... i would never in my life want to lose that much weight, not even 10pounds

What a dumb-ass, doing that to anyones body is not good, and there is definitly going to be permanit damage in my opinion.
