Christian Bale Loves His F-Words
Extremely Explicit: Every third word spoken by Christian Bale seems to be the F-word in a newly surfaced tape from the set of his new movie, Terminator Salvation. Apparently, cinematographer Shane Hurlbut screwed up a scene by walking into Bale's line of sight. Movie star Bale wouldn't have any of that: For three minutes straight, he administered a verbal trashing to the culprit and anyone who tried to calm him down, using expletives of all sorts in abundance.
He threatens to quit, saying to the cinematographer, "If you do it one more time I ain't walking on this set if you're still hired!" and accusing him of "trashing my scene."
The on-set incident occurred a few months back and was widely reported, but only now has the tape surfaced. TMZ.com posted it on Monday, reporting that it had been sent to the insurance company that insured Terminator Salvation in case Bale quit as he threatens on the tape.
