CB is cool. PC sucks. And by PC, I’m talking about “Politically Correctness”. Christian Bale blew up on set on some dude and it was recorded. Personally, I think the guy deserved it for ruining a scene. Back in the old days, John Wayne would have slapped the dude like a little girl and life would go on. In today’s day and age, a star can’t exercise his right to swagger and yell at some plebe on the set. That’s BS. Whichever side of the fence your on, the tirade is hilarious anyway…. it’s after the jump. And here are the quotes of Christian Bale apologiziging profusely.
“It’s been a miserable week for me,” Bale, 35, said on The Kevin & Bean Show on KROQ-FM in Los Angeles.
In an audiotape that has swept the Internet (and become fodder for satirical music remixes), Bale is heard unleashing a four-minute profanity-laced verbal assault at the film’s director of photography, Shane Hurlbut, who accidentally entered Bale’s sight lines during shooting.
“I was out of order, beyond belief,” Bale tells KROQ. “I acted like a punk. I regret that … It is inexcusable.”
The tirade, he says, stemmed from his intensity and enthusiasm for acting, but that “I made it ugly. I took it way too far.”
“Please, I am asking people, do not allow my onetime lapse in judgment, my incredibly embarrassing meltdown, to overshadow this movie,” he says.
Adds Bale: “I ask everybody to sit down and ask themselves, ‘Have they ever had a bad day and ever lost their temper and really regretted it immensely?’”
As for the mocking and criticism he’s received since the tape was revealed, he says, “I deserve it completely.”
