Christian Bale vs. Assault?
Christian Bale needs a bail out!
Click here to listen as the actor relentlessly (and inexcusably) screams, curses, and threatens to walk off the Terminator 4 set unless the Director of Photography is terminated. As you listen, consider whether Bale’s conduct satisfies the following definition of assault:
Assault occurs when one person tries to physically harm another in a way that makes the person under attack feel immediately threatened. Actual physical contact is not necessary; threatening gestures that would alarm any reasonable person can constitute an assault.

I’d like to say something bad about Bale, including calling him a pseudo-American, certified psycho, self-sustaining, gigantic douchy gallaxy of self-importance (c’mon, he’s on the set of effing Terminator 4, for eff’s sake!!!), but now I’m really scared he’ll kick my ass if I do!
Isn’t it the director’s job to decide whether a take worked or not, though?
Russ, I think this is the best entry you have ever posted, now I know why I found that stupid raspy Batman voice so absolutely insufferable!!!
