I LOVE Bale in this interview...

Interviewer: There's a lot of hearsay around it all, you know, "oh it was the Joker that made him so troubled"
Bale: I think, first of all, anybody who's saying that should just shut up. You know? They have no idea. It's arrogant, it's ridiculous, it's trivializing a tragedy to suggest that they know anything about what was going on in his mind. You know? That it's his personal friends' and families', and nobody else's business.

Same goes for Oldman, who was apparently asked the same question.

To the interviewer's credit, he wasn't suggesting that was the case himself. If anything, he seemed to be trying to give them an opportunity to speak their minds about the rumours.

I love how they all stood up for Heath, especially Christian. So sad.

 

[Captain Useless]

Wow, Bale really spoke his mind there!
Nice, because so often you just see him working out what to say and going over it in his head before he answers.

 

[gazzilla8000]

Haha, I love that guy.

I'm glad someone finally said it publicly.

 

[General Vulcun]

Bale is my hero, on & off the screen.

[Hurm...]

[The Denialist]

Great to see Bale really let it out like that.

Thanks for posting this, DesertBat.

Holy crap, I think you are right! What a lucky bastard.

Meanwhile, regarding Bale, this is one of the most bittersweet pictures ever:

This movie's going to suck......the life out of every other film this summer.
Damn, Bale's gone method. I'm betting this lives up the hype Big Time.

 

[DAMU RYDER]

^^ i agree, bale wasnt aiming that answer toward the interviewer.

 

[turtlefocker]

Maggie is extremely adamant about this in her interview also. Both her and Bale were "friends" with Heath outside of making this movie so I think that they are right.

 

[Yurka]

Bale is my ****ing hero.
That was awesome.

 

[Wolverine_05]

I am thinking about how awful the interview will be when/if Christian talks to this lady again.

[The Battousai]

Oh man, you can just tell how much he loathes talking to her.

Holy ****...



I don't blame him

 

[Ferd]

Bale is just so blunt with his replies and I love it. He is damn right, too.

 

[Attikus]

What is up with that chunky gringa-interviewer? Shouldn't there be a weight requirement for morning TV?

Regardless of her moronic comments, Bale is pure class.
