More quotes by Christian Bale
Everyone always tells you that you're the only one that can do this or that role right, and if you say no, they go to somebody else and tell them that they're the only one that can do it right. But when they're talking to you, you're always the 'Best Actor of Your Generation.'
Christian Bale
In honesty, there are probably a lot of stories that can be told with Batman. I like the idea of him growing older and he can't quite do it as much anymore.
Christian Bale
In terms of the romantic kind of lead, I just never enjoy those movies very much. Maybe they'll come to interest me more as I get older. I doubt it, but maybe. Romantic comedies tend to be, for me, an oxymoron.
Christian Bale
The only thing that I'm obsessed with is sleeping, and actually, it is more than an obsession, it is a pleasure.
Christian Bale
For me any moment in front of a crowd is embarrassing, because I can't stand being in front of people. I'm probably one of the worst public speakers. I try to avoid it, but there are times when it's just too rude not to do it. But there really isn't a moment that's not embarrassing for me if I'm going to stand up in front of a crowd.
Christian Bale
I don't have acknowledged preferences of characters.
Christian Bale
I never applied to any acting schools. I don't know if that's just bad reporting, or - sometimes I just make stuff up.
Christian Bale
I think there's a limited amount of planning you can do, at least in the position I'm in. Maybe more successful actors can plan more than I'm able to.
Christian Bale
Whatever you do, do it completely. Don't do it half-arsed. Do it more than anybody else would.
Christian Bale
I never want to feel that I'm playing it safe.
Christian Bale
It was always that I finished one movie and then had no idea what I was doing. I think there's a limited amount of planning you can do, at least in the position I'm in. Maybe more successful actors can plan more than I'm able to.
Christian Bale
'3:10 to Yuma' was one that I just kept on talking and thinking about after reading it. And I think the reason is because, like in most Westerns, you have the very clear-cut bad-guy/good-guy, however, as the movie progresses, you kind of see that it's a very fine line that divides these two.
Christian Bale
I think it's important when you're acting to be as relaxed as possible even if you're doing something intense. You're basically in a state of dynamic relaxation.
Christian Bale
For me, I think the harder the shoot, the more I feel like I'm enjoying myself.
Christian Bale
I've always believed that the director does whatever the hell he wants. That's what you sign on for as an actor - I can't stand it when you have actors who are trying to leverage directors into doing things they don't want to do.
Christian Bale
The interesting thing about a movie is the movie.
Christian Bale
I tend to stay in character between scenes... to be rather serious on set, but here's why, and I think people will find it surprising. I'm one of the worst 'corpses' on a movie set, which means you can't keep a straight face. You start to get the giggles and you can't stop.
Christian Bale
Planning a career, I always find a tricky thing, because I don't have much of a plan, really.
Christian Bale
It's about pursuing it rather than waiting to see what comes along.
Christian Bale
I'm English. Our dentistry is not world famous.
