american psycho extra featurette

[COMMANDRofAWESUM]

Christian Bale did the interview for this while faking an American accent....I guess he was shy to show that he was British during the pre-Batman years of his stardom....very strange.

[mobman47]

Christian Bale is an extremely passionate actor. He really dedicates himself to the roles in movies and you can tell he loves to do what he does. I'm also impressed that he has tried so many different kind of roles and genres.

[DariushUFC1985]

In my opinion the greatest actor of this generation

[rowdy8888]

Harron, & Turner did a hell of a job. Bravo ! times 10.

[unleashtheGecko]

What song is playing in the beginning of the video?

[jordan12111991]

Kinda looks like Travis Barker at 1:48 lol

[mattisprettycool]

Haha when I first saw this I thought his American accent was legit.

[rowdy8888]

@mattisprettycool ..Bale attended Bournemouth School for Boys

[phreestylesk8r]

in school i will do a book project on american pyscho

[swima94]

Christian bales hair....

awesome.



[Kazuyasan9999]

Morbid portrait of male behaviour? Actually it's a morbid portrait of Easton Ellis' imagination. And yes I have read the book and watched the movie, love the film. The book was good up until the last 100 or so pages, where it just got disgusting.

[davidhealey1]

@Kazuyasan9999 There are disgusting parts throughout the book, not just the last 100 pages. Indeed, his murder of the tramp is one of the more detailed and gruesome, and the two prostitutes are comparatively early in the book.

[miketallica665]

I had Willem DeFoe living under my bed

[Tommo8540]

@miketallica665 You asleep yet? No... Just checking.

[dovestones]

I always dig when he sticks with his characters accents during his various films.

[xXxBlackwaterXxX]

you can tell he is still in character because in real life he has a fairly heavy accent

[neilwilson557]

batman and the green goblin???? i smell trouble

[barneygrumble]

i wanna do naughty things to chole. and by that i mean good things

[Deeperap]

What a fucking b*itch this women is, she can't talk like that. I bet if a male director whould have done this movie with christian bale and other great actors it would be much better. I mean she has obviously issues with her life and I feel sometimes that she influences badly on the movie story like when Bateman breaks up with Evelyn, its not like that at all in the book but she did it this way to show that guys are d*cks with their girlfriends.No wonder why she hates so much men. Lesbian !

[MegaTress1]

i hate the feminist director who claims this is male behaviour at its worst. what a truely disgusting thing to say. does she not even know what a psychopath is? i think she might be one herself. this is not male behaviour at its worst and all people do not have this behaviour in them.

[ULikeHomemadeWaffles]

@MegaTress1 Don't know if it's worth mentioning there's a video on here where Bret Easton Ellis himself calls American Psycho "a critique of male behaviour"

[MegaTress1]

@ULikeHomemadeWaffles oh well they he is a mangina. fuck him!

[TheAlienAndTheTree]

one of the few scary movies with actual quality

[evilempire96]

2 dislikes!!!!

Must be Bryce and McDermott messing about lol.

[Asaski09]

1:32 - GMan!

But seriously, this film is a triumph, just like the book. The reality is that all these thoughts are in everyone's heads to some degree and the story just chooses to look inside the mindset of someone who has let them cross his boundaries of sanity.

[MegaTress1]

@Asaski09 no these thoughts may enter everyones head, but that is all. a psychopath has these thoughts in there head, but never has feeling of emotions and empathy, as most other people do. a psychopath does not have a conscience.

[metallitech]

To be honest I like the film less after seeing the feminist-seeming director talking about it.

[indigoshadows26]

Hey really liked this -- it helps to appreciate the movie more, with all the social debate over it being misogynistic and all. Cudos to finding this little gem!

[BROKENHOUSEFILMS]

if christian never became BATMAN, he would make an awesome Joker

[numbcore]

@BROKENHOUSEFILMS Your joke is amusing, but come on man, you had 1 fatal flaw. Bateman, is such a dork, such a pathetic spineless lightweight. Now if you said Bryce, or McDermoth, otherwise it was amusing.

[muziclovr28]

i just saw this movie. amazing acting done by christian bale. was this nominated for anything?

[MiltonProductions]

surprisingly, no but the academy always used to give the shaft to good movies... like 'blow'

[see4ward]

@MiltonProductions

Exactly!! I don't think "the academy" liked its content. This movie was done to perfection...it should be considered ART. Did you read the book as well?

[MiltonProductions]

@see4ward Yeah i just finished it... so much more brutal and deep. But the movie was as close to the novel as filmmakers were gonna get without making people's heads explode. Love the movie and book equally.

[fuckamericanidiot]

the blonde is a shite actress

[sHAd0W11591]

what dvd version is this?

[caraandheath]

the amazingly sexy christian bale said in a interview he doesnt change the voice of the character for ages so his accent is always diffrent

[malenkytoys]

he is so fucking HAWTTTTT y'all cant UNDERSTAND

[mattfca]

brilliant film. im working on the book now

[hardcorecordock]

the books great! but total gorno

[see4ward]

@mattfca

This is from two months ago - so..what did you think of the book?

[mattfca]

i liked it but i like the movie more. the violence ended up being numbing after a while in the book.

[see4ward]

@mattfca

Agreed. It's kind of amazing that Ellis is allowed to walk the streets knowing what prattles around in that mind of his, don't you think? It also amazes me what is allowed in print. I'm fairly sure that is not what our forefathers meant by Freedom of Speech.

[resandelantis]

oh so thats the cunt that shit all over one of the best books ever written

[shasta723]

@resandelantis waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaa waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaa Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

[colloredbrothers]

your comment made me go want to read it. so ty

[resandelantis]

@colloredbrothers : yw yw! read lunar park too, its awesome =)

[donkeygoeslive]

am i right in thinking that christian is british?

[TroyKeenanOfficial]

he's welsh

[asassin06]

He's actually English, was raised in Wales :)

[Brenho]

@asassin06 he was born in wales

[asassin06]

His parents are English, he spent a mere 2 years in Wales, he's English.

[fuckamericanidiot]

you mean he's welsh

[RioXavier]

You're a fucking ugly bitch, I wanna stab you to death and play around with your blood.

[Beor88]

Iconic perfomance by Christian, but I really wish he had more scenes with Willem!

[septip123]

in the novel, Bateman is very smart. I thought he was a bit of a goof ball in the movie.

[SirSmokeal0t]

Bateman isn´t very smart. He´s absolutely fucking shallow and estranged to the world.

[chimpiki]

Eccentric, but not a goof ball. He's definitely obsessed with the banal, and superficial, but I think what you're perceiving to be goofy or stupid is his disconnect with the rest of humanity, and his lack of understanding. Mind you, I haven't read the book, so I guess maybe the writing is more intellectual and calculated than in the film version.

[8IRISHBLESSING]

Equilibrium

did a great job in that movie too

hes a good actor

[tentdwerg]

what's the music in the first 23 sec?

[001draven]

Fuck, forgot Rescue Dawn! Great flick, Bale's poignant in this one, too.

[001draven]

I haven't seen a Bale performance better than this film. Ya, i know that he got real thin for the Machinist movie, which was mediocre, but his performance was bollocks in that one, too. Reign of Fire- so so, the Batman films have been good but his acting in them wasn't that memorable. Psycho- his best!

[whorutothink]

you're all retarded, who the fuck cares?

[sazzrhilee]

Okay 1 , I think he's trying to stay in character and 2 He was born in Wales BUT He grew up In England ...also the two are not the same place they are both parts of The Great Britain!...jeessh

[renducat]

can someone please please !!! explain to me what the ending was all about I really need to hear it from someone else ..was he hallutinating wtf???

[christme85]

great black comedy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[mshake64]

Would you really consider American Psycho a black comedy?

[christme85]

this movie is hilarious in an horrific way ..its a satire every thing has to be taken at the second degree..bale himself calls it a black comedy ..if you dont understand that it means you totally missed the point of the movie..should watch it again maybe youll get it..

[mshake64]

I suppose you're right, I just wasn't sure.

[iamcasihart]

Absolutely. In fact, this is one of the most hysterical and hilarious films that I have ever seen. I was not expecting a black comedy when I first watched this years ago, as it was sort of advertised as a horror film.

[LitaniTilSatan666]

The humor in the movie is blacker than the blackest of nights.

[123456789helloman]

@christme85 The best.

[atthepistol]

Who has misjudged the plot according to Bale and co?

[fuzzdemon]

Why is he using american accent in an interview? lol

[atthepistol]

I think he is staying in character. It is an important thing to do when you are on set.

[17crazyeyes]

I imagine it's hard to switch in and out of accents.

[Stevesk0011]

@atthepistol not when you're a psycho killer lol

[atthepistol]

@Stevesk0011 Your right there! That can be dangerous. . .

[drunkdonutboy]

He's using that accent for months on end, it sticks after a while.

[Mrster]

Was he removing his accent in this video?

[KELLYELLEKG]

lol I've always wished they had some tight leather gloves instead of those snowball throwing gloves he wor in the movie. Idk why that distracts me so much.

[ARMYkid99]

Thats not Christan regular voice is it i thought he was British !

[roflweenis]

When he's on a movie set he keeps his American accent, he's very into his movie roles. But he does have an accent. He's from Wales, UK.

[grangegoarman]

Check out 1:44.....thats a very expensive chardonnay that niggers not drinking.

[pitoupanda]

doesn't look like chardonnay too yellow, more sauternes or monbazillac. And I don't know how you can say it is expensive...

[grangegoarman]

You obviously have either not seen the film, don't understand the reference or else you don't have any sense of humour. Either way, go die in a gardening accident.

[KELLYELLEKG]

That's the only thing you had to comment on in this video? I didn't even know wtf you were talking about until i played it again. WTF IS WRONG WITH YOU?

[grangegoarman]

Are u fuckin stupid? When he has the 2 hookers in his appartment he says i dont want you to get drunk but thats a very expensive chardonnay ur not drinking. Its a reference to the film and book. He always says nigger in the book. U are an idiot. Moron!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[KELLYELLEKG]

Yes I will admit that I am stupid. I just learned today that there was a book, so my sincere apologies, but I guess thats the only pert you felt was funny/worth quoting. Still irritating.

[grangegoarman]

Your apology is accepted. I accept your unconditional surrender. Victory!

[KELLYELLEKG]

lols - yeah you win. = ) I'll be back when my business cards come in. jk

[grangegoarman]

Just make sure its bone and the font is tremendous. Do u like phil collins?

[KELLYELLEKG]

HA HA! YES! Now THAT IS my favourite quote! ...In context of the scene, of course.

[drmartinsboots]

the book is no gore fest its closer to a catalog or a to do list thats whats so fucking cool about it the reader needs the release as much as pat does

[TOGGGAA1]

you will not admitt that there is a obscene amount of gore in the book?

[septip123]

the author said on Charlie Rose if you added up all the violent scenes it totaled about 5-6 pages.

That, is an understatement. That book is a gore fest

[Hax9]

i once read somewhere that even though he's English.. Christian Bale puts on an American accent in any American interview of his and his normal english accent in English ones..

[bigvid1122]

you are almost correct he is not english he is welsh

[renducat]

his fucking british

[bigvid1122]

what are you talking about Great Britain is made up of four countries England, Scotland, WALES ,Northern Ireland..... Christain bale was born in Haverfordwest in wales so he is welsh. Read a fucking book. I bet you are American and let me tell you i proberly know more about your country than you do....OWNED

FUCK!!!!

[renducat]

in that case better call you r mama or better still can you please tell her 2 call me up asap please?

[bigvid1122]

What you going to do throw vodka in my face.

[Kebbek192000]

Wales is in Great Britain...Which also makes him British. So no owning for you and I am American so....Shut it.

[bigvid1122]

nah mate Wales is a country its not like the usa were you have states.

[femmefatale1990]

Yeah, but Christian Bale likes to speak with an American accent for some of his American film interviews.

[Scourgeofthehood]

"...Nevertheless, such persons as the composer of these "Notes" not only exist in our society, but indeed must exist, considering the circumstances under which our society has generally been formed. I have wished to bring before the public...a character of our recent past. He represents a generation that is still living out its days among us. In the fragment entitled "Underground" this personage ...attempts...to clarify the reasons why he appeared and was bound to appear in our midst..."

[reelsweet25]

I strongly believe that this is based on someone in real life, because there is no way on earth someone is that creative and detailed unless that person is crazy. For all we know it might be based on the author himself.

[reelsweet25]

LOL! You're not right for that one man.

[lavennovell]

even not in film, i think bale is creepy...

if i've meet him face to face i probably running away as far as possible..

[DejahDagger]

hey, Christian's makeup was really good =o He was practically glowing... ahhhhhh, like an adonis... Ah shit! *sits up and straightens collar...

[Robair12]

I find it funny how Americans are always percevied as being the arrogant ones of the worlds-because whenever I read movie comments I always find a cocky statement by some European who is trying to lift himself up by bashing Americans and pointing out their supposed ignorance.

[incessantmace]

Let me clue you in, America sucks. I'm caucasion and was born and raised in NY my whole life. Yet I share the same 'arrogance' as 'the Europeans'. America makes lots of movies(some good)applying the metaphor 'bread and circuses'.

[lolpanda66]

Sir,

Please do not share your anti-national comments. It is because of people like you that we are in this financial crisis. If you still think so negatively after the new election, then I am very sorry for you.

[lolpanda66]

The message was meant for "incessantmace".

[incessantmace]

Since you sound like a 9yr old political fanboy im surprised to hear you have pro-censorship views when the US uses freedom of speech as its main selling point. I'm also the cause of your financial crisis not the unstable human system. Nice. Lastly, I never mentioned or gave a shit to think about the election. Obama won the popularity contest because everyone wanted to prove they weren't racist by voting for someone whose black. The majority of americans have just proven themselves racist. sry

[Verderer]

Christian Bale is not English - he's WELSH. For Americans who may not know what Welsh means - he is from WALES, and for Americans who may not know where Wales is - it's part of the UK. For Americans who may not know where the UK is then I can make no further comment.

[yatebale]

we know that Christian Bale was born in Pembrokeshire, 'Wales', In normal interviews, he speaks with an English accent & He speaks an american accent for the Batman interviews

[RaphaelX99]

ass

[jwsavs]

he's not welsh. he even says he's not welsh. he was born in wales and didn't even live there fro a year. his parents are from england. he is english.

[maxcap2]

@Verderer fuck yourself

[maximino27]

@maxcap2 you took the words right out of my mouth. I'm sick of all these haters on you tube disrespecting Americans. Verderer truly can go fuck himself with a splintered broom handle

[finbomartini]

@Verderer Coming from an Irishman - Americans aren't stupid, don't be so condescending

[Mannykeri]

@Verderer little island beside Europe............. ;)

[elwoodbluesx]

Christians the man, stays in charachter after scenes during interview ect. Changes his accent whenever he does another film.

[yatebale]

Mary Harron (AP director) said: Also he was speaking in the Bateman accent all the time, which almost made him seem like a different person. It was very funny because when my husband and I walked into the wrap party for the film, Christian came up and said Hi in an ENGLISH ACCENT. John and I were so surprised -- we hadn't heard his real voice for months."

WOW

[elwoodbluesx]

He he- thats brilliant!

[chopinesprit]
