I remember watching this scene in theaters with my mom, and the second it ended, she leaned over and said “He’s gonna win the Oscar” lol. Took less than 2 minutes
During college I used to spar at the West End gym in Lowell. Bale's performance is a border line mind fuck to me because I met Dickie a few times down there. After watching this all I can really say is...that's him. That's Dickie. It's absolutely astounding. I can't believe I never got around to seeing The Fighter. I'm gonna have to get on that ASAP.
I watched the movie and couldn't stop thinking about Bale's performance. I thought he should have won an Oscar. I came to find out he did. Amazing the Academy got it right!! 💪
This was the first movie I saw where after it was over I thought Christian Bale deserved an Academy Award for his performance and sure enough he won it. Bale was fantastic in this film, as he usually is in the films he’s in.
Bale and ledger easily could have switched roles in the dark knight and played them just as well. If the dark knight trilogy hadn’t happen and i saw this movie, i would have been like bale should be the next joker because of this role in this alone
A masterclass in ACTING??? No, a masterclass in acting, dialogue, editing, and camerawork; every single aspect of filming assaults you with perfection and that is why this film is the most perfect film ever made...in no other film does every aspect of filming assault you with how good it is
At :22 he really brings it together with that quick little facial manurism that we've all seen drug addicts do. This scene stood out to me the first time I watched it.. School is in session

0:49. The little stutter for some reason is amazing to me. He’s such a fucking great actor
At :22...the facial expressions...he really nails it
What an actor what a performer ... bale is a legend

This scene is seared in my memory. Bale is brilliant and Walberg’s blank face makes the scene even funnier. I wonder how many takes there were.
Great scene, Bale was brilliant!! The way he says thunderous is hilarious.
Christian Bale was unreal in this!

might be the best piece of acting ever recorded in cinema

So happy he won an Oscar for this!
The best opening scene ever
Stop it.
Batman, Fighter, Vice President etc. He nail every Role
I remember when I first watched this movie right after that opening scene I thought to myself, give him the oscar.
Bale might be the most talented actor ever.
I was 7 when I saw this in theatre's with my dad. Jesus christ
I cry at that very en scene. Every time
The flash back seen was filmed at my moms house in Tewksbury. I was there!
At :22 he really brings it together with that quick little facial manurism that we've all seen drug addicts do. This scene stood out to me the first time I watched it.. School is in session
Damn
Bale killed this one
Can play a hero and a junkie
Christian Bale, he's good, he's batman dude
Reminds me of my cousin 😢
Brilliant
Completely nailed a drug dealer
One of my top 3
What a monumental performance
He's not a drug dealer, he was a drug addict
Weird how Bale is playing Wahlberg's older brother but he's 3 years younger in real life
Bale is batman
How is Bale's accent here better than Wahlberg's in The Departed... smh
We Love You, Mark Wahlberg 🙌✌️🖐😎
Bale is actually 3 years younger than Mark.
This is gonna mean nothing to anyone but Christian Bale in this movie looks way too much like my dad and it kinda freaks me out lmao
xqc send me
I can see why he relates to Bale’s character
He’s just doing Keith richards with a Boston accent
Let's see yours
@@Andy-Bodhi see my what
