Christian Charles Philip Bale Professionalism
In 2003, Bell took over the filming of " The Mechanic ". In the play, the character asked to "look like he hasn't slept for a year". This is his most dramatic reshaping experience. Relying on hunger and a lot of physical exertion, Bell lost 63 pounds (57 catties) within 2 weeks. He originally planned to lose 100 pounds. However, the doctor warned him that if he loses weight, he may die young. Bell This stopped the terrible body sculpting training. Just after finishing his extreme challenge, Bell received the role of Bruce Wayne . As a superhero without superpowers, Bruce Wayne needs to keep his physical fitness at its peak. This also means that in the shortest possible time, Bell will transform from a weak sick man into a superhero full of muscles. Through arduous special training, Bell quickly increased his weight by more than 60 kilograms. After the performance of " Bruce Wayne: The Mystery of Xia Ying ", the filming of " Rescue Dawn " was taken over. The film was adapted from real events. It tells the story of the German Dieter who joined the U.S. Navy during the Vietnam War and was captured after a failed mission. In historical facts, Dieter after being rescued weighed less than 80 kilograms, so Bell had to work hard to lose weight to achieve a skinny state to conform to the character's image. This time he lost another 50 kilograms. During the shooting, he put the live maggots in his mouth and let the helicopter fly over the roof and woods while hanging himself. Later, with the shooting of " The Dark Knight " and " The Terminator2018 ", Bell again faced the test of rapid fat gain. After all, heroes are always associated with the words such as tall stature, strong muscles, and infinite power. He had to regain the weight he lost and build a muscle. In 2010, he starred in " The Fighter ". In order to interpret a talented boxer who was sluggish due to drugs, Bell once again lost 40 pounds and became skinny. And next is the Bruce Wayne trilogy "The final chapter of The Dark Knight Rise , the cycle repeats again.
Character Evaluation
Christian Charles Philip Bale is the most melancholy generation Bruce Wayne from Hollywood. He is the "American priest" who shows passion and redemption from Zhang Yimou's film " The Flowers Of War ". He is the "American Psycho+cult star" in the hearts of cult fans. , He was the big child star of the 1980s who was selected by Spielberg when he was 13 years old. He is still holding the recognized acting school of the 2011 Oscar statuette. It is not an exaggeration to say that the resume and achievements of Christian Charles Philip Bale can already be seen. The field of performance defines the meaning of film. If it is said that the artistic carrier of film is where dreams and pride are truly possible, then the name of Christian Charles Philip Bale must be one of the strongest evidence
.
Bell's professionalism is admirable, and I have never seen such a dedicated first-line actor like Bell. In particular, he does not talk about pomp and conditions like other big names, which makes it difficult for directors and producers to serve. For some dangerous scenes, a stand-in was found for Bell to perform, but after Bell saw the performance of the stand-in, even if it was from behind, he felt that the performance was not adequate, and he simply went to the battle
.
Although Bell is 1.83 meters tall, has deep eyes, trimmed eyebrows and nose, and has a marble-like outline, and smiles like Tom Cruise in his prime, he rarely shows off his appearance in the film. His role is almost from The character and appearance will be different from the previous work
