Out of Character


For those of you who may have missed it last week, the audio footage of Christian Bale's entry for the World Swearing Olympics is available here. It's not really the amount of profanity or pure vitriol directed towards the hapless Director of Photograpy that caught my interest, but, more the hilarious way that Batman's, or should that be Bateman's, accent drifts backwards and forwards across the Atlantic throughout the whole rant. Nothing is more funny than hearing an English man inform you that he is, in no uncertain terms, going to "Kick your F*ckin' Ass", especially when delivered in a cod - californian accent.

In a fitting Life imitates Art moment, Robert Downey Jr's character, Kirk Lazarus, delivers this killer line in the film Tropic Thunder;

"Man, I don't drop character 'till I done the DVD commentary"
