Oh. My. God.

Well, at least we know how Christian Bale manages to keep coming up with all these brooding, slightly scary performances in films such as Batman Begins & Dark Knight, The Machinist and, errr, American Psycho: it’s because it seems that he’s actually a bit of a British Psycho.

It seems that just days before being arrested for assaulting his mother (he was later released without charge), he had a little run-in with the Director of Cinematography on the latest Terminator film, in which he’s starring. TMZ have all the details and it really is worth a listen as he totally loses it and doesn’t come out of it well at all (if only because his transatlantic accent is so bloody annoying).

A few choice quotes:

“I want to kick your f**king ass!

NO! NO! Don’t shut me up!

What don’t you f**king understand?!

F**k’s sake man you’re amateur!

Stay off the f**king set man, for f**k’s sake!

You’re un-f**kin’ believable… I’ve never had a DP behave like this!

I wanna’ f**kin’ kick your f**ckin’ ass if you don’t shut up for a second!

You’re a nice guy but that don’t f**kin’ cut it when you’re bullshittin’ & f**kin’ around on set!

Seriously, you and me, we’re f**kin’ done, professionally. Fuckin’ ass!

Charming!

    Oh like YOU have never had a bad day. He is actually incredibly talented. It’s totally over-exploited. Heaven forbid you mention that he apologized and straightened up.

Obviously everything on this site is the opinion of me, Ciarán Norris, and no-one else, including my employers and anyone else I know. I guess that it's probably obvious, but thought I should probably make it explicit. Anyway, enjoy!
