Christian Bale angry on set of Terminator Salvation

Warning, Contains strong language.
This is Christian Bale on the set of Terminator Salvation ranting and raving about the director of photography interfering with him during a take.

BTW, Bale is 100% in the right. The DP broke one of the most important rules on a set, you never enter an actors line of vision during a take. Some directors, like Sydney Lumet(RIP), would even make it a rule to shout out before a take "Clear line of vision" before announcing action.

And its really McG (the director) who should be yelling at the guy. You can here McG say "I didn't see it" during the video which is almost inexcusable for a director to say, its his job to get the performance from an actor and make sure there are no distractions.

All that aside, BALE is very extreme in his anger here which for some will make him look like the bad guy here. Maybe his anger is too much but that doesn't change the fact that he is right. Anyone in the Business will sympathize with him in this clip.

Also, YES I KNOW I MADE A TYPO in the video. It says "Christina Bale" not Christian Bale. Some have said this was me pointing out Bale's whiny attitude. Honestly, I made an epic fail. I didnt proof read and have no desire to fix it. Its a mistake on my part.

BTW, regardless of whether you agree with him or not, you have admit this is one of the funniest rants by a celebrity ever.

[JD95]

can anyone explain the situation? what did the DP do?

[NEdelbach]

@JD95 I added an explanation into my description. I don't know if the exact details were ever released but based off the audio I gave a summary since many seem to be unable to understand based off this clip alone.

@NEdelbach If you think screaming at someone for nearly 5 FCKING MINUTES like a nutcase is something to "support", then you have a serious problem. It's INCREDIBLE how people like you find ANYTHING in order to defend their douchebags favorites celebrities. Same with Chris Brown, Charlie Sheen,... The fanboys/fangirls doesn't have ANY morals.

I am Bateman!

@jodelleferlandfan1 When you do a job, you do it seriously. I yelled like that to someone who made a huge mistake. Everyone around me understood my anger. When you can't do your job because of stupid people, yo get really pissed. It's not because it's a celebrity that agree with him, I agree with Bale as I have a job as well.

maybe he was just having a bad day? But he did over react. I hope I never do this. He is human though.

[mouloudo]

you're a fanboy, Bale was being a dickhead

[TheMaroonBunyip]
