I like the idea of movies having a magic element. How many times have you seen an actor in a movie who you know only as the character? Its wonderful, isnt it? – Christian Bale
In terms of the romantic kind of lead, I just never enjoy those movies very much. Maybe theyll 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
My hope is that people will be repulsed by the characters complete lack of ethics and obsession with consumerism – thats what I was saying about the difference between the characters message and the films message. – Christian Bale
Normal is getting dressed in clothes that you buy for work, driving through traffic in a car that you are still paying for, in order to get to a job that you need so you can pay for the clothes, car and the house that you leave empty all day in order to afford to live in it. – Ellen Goodman
