Personally, I love going to see a film when you can really watch a character. If you've just read some article about who the actor is sleeping with, that's gonna be at the back of your mind all the time while you're watching the film.

More quotes by Christian Bale
I won't kill you but I don't have to save you.
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
Planning a career, I always find a tricky thing, because I don't have much of a plan, really.
Christian Bale
What I like about it is that I'm not somebody who's in movies. I'm a guy who's not very good going around the track with a bunch of guys who are a hell of a lot better.
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 get it when you get so much openness about the way movies are made, and the special effects and the behind-the-scenes stuff and all of that. I can't help but feel like this reduces it a little bit.
Christian Bale
Basically, it's somebody who got stuck having to interview me who really wants to be a novelist, so they're writing these novellas and I was like, It's not true, that didn't happen, they just made all that up! Why don't they just go ahead and be a novelist instead of bothering with interviewing me?
Christian Bale
An actor should never be larger than the film he's in.
Christian Bale
Any planning that I have in my career is totally accidental really.
Christian Bale
Art is something to be proud of. Art is no compromise.
Christian Bale
I find what I do for a living really funny. I mean, acting is kind of a hilarious thing for a grown man to call a job.
Christian Bale
I seek … the means to fight injustice. To turn fear against those who prey on the fearful.
Christian Bale
For me, I think the harder the shoot, the more I feel like I'm enjoying myself.
Christian Bale
I'm an actor I'm not a politician. I always kick myself when I talk too much about family, or personal things.
Christian Bale
I'd love to remain a secret and still work, but I also want people to see the movies I'm in and get a higher profile because of that. I like to think that as long as you continue choosing diverse roles, you can avoid becoming predictable.
Christian Bale
I'm not really looking forward to wearing a black rubber suit in the summertime in humid Chicago. If you see a pool of sweat through the city, follow it and you will find me.
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
I quite like it when you're working with people and you only get to know them through the scenes that you're doing together.
Christian Bale
I start from scratch with each movie I wipe the slate and I certainly don't rely on some bag of acting tricks I've amassed over the years.
Christian Bale
There are occasions when I've pretended to be in a firefight, and then there are people who have really been in a firefight. Clearly it's absolutely ridiculous, and even disrespectful, to suggest that I understand what that is.
Christian Bale
