Christian Bale's movies: ''The Machinist''
THE ROLE Bale notoriously dropped 63 pounds to play Trevor Reznick, an insomniac factory worker who begins to question his own sanity.
WHAT EW SAID Lisa Schwarzbaum: ''There's not a minute we watch Bale, stumbling hollow-eyed through a green-gray world of alienation and paranoia... that we dare forget the millions who have died — in famines, in sickness, in concentration camps — desperate for the nourishment Bale so arbitrarily declined to play a make-believe character in a movie. Such boniness is obscene.''
