Man this is good! If this prick talked to me like this I would pop his eyes out, rip his ears off and break every bone in this dudes face before he hit the ground. I just love the ego these a**holes get.

He was yelling at the DP (Director of Photography) - the "head cameraman" for lack of a better description.

The DP is fairly senior position and pretty much critical to the production, if the DP was that inexperienced or stupid as to walk though a take AGAIN, he probably deserved the ass reaming.

Although it should have been the director and not the talent doing it.

What a looser. Anybody with that little self restraint needs some sort of counseling. How much is he being paid for that film?

I hate to side with a rich actor, but I really don't get the impression that Christian Bale is a snob.

Most of those shoots go on for 12+ hours.

And after a few retakes of the same scene (done over, and over, and over, and over, and over), some guy f*cks up a perfectly good take.

I could see myself blowing my top at that point.

Then again, they paid A LOT of money...

He is one of the very best actors in Hollywood...a child actor who made it bigtime and has never had any drug or alcohol problems.....

He is very sensitive about his work and while he lost his temper and cursed a bunch (way too long) the Director of Photography should know better and have never gotten to be a distraction.....bad timing.

Hats off to Christian Bale a talented actor.....Loved "American Psycho"

Christian Bale is embarrassed, miserable and regretful.

And sooooo sorry.

The actor, whose profanity-laced diatribe last year against an assistant director who walked into his line of sight during filming for "Terminator Salvation" surfaced this week, called a Los Angeles radio station Friday and went into full apology mode.

"It's been a miserable week for me," Bale told hosts Kevin Ryder and Gene "Bean" Baxter. "Listen, I know I have a potty mouth; everybody knows this now.

Christian Bale says rant was 'inexcusable' and that he's reconciled with cinematographer

"The thing that I really want to stress is I have no confusion whatsoever. I was out of order beyond belief. I was way out of order. I acted like a punk. I regret that.

"There is nobody that has heard that tape that is hit harder by it than me. I make no excuses for it. It is inexcusable. I hope that that is absolutely clear."
