    Christian Bale is definitely committed to his transformations. A lot of times I still see him in his roles, but he thoroughly sold me on his method acting ability in The Big Short. Holy shit, man! That was like watching a completely different person on the screen.

      I saw Christian Bale and transformation and I was convinced you were going to bring up The Machinist, he lost a lot of weight for that role.

        Yeah that is one of the examples of him being incredibly committed to his transformations. But I felt that The Big Short really made him stand out as an actor, since the character has such a completely different personality than all of his other characters, and he totally nails it, even with the little quirks.
