Christian Bale and Mark Wahlberg are out promoting The Fighter at the moment, so are doing lots of interviews. Here, though, one intrepid interviewer manages to get Christian Bale to sing a song of his choosing.
I’m not sure what’s more surprising: that he chose to sing the theme tune to The Power Puff Girls or that that dodgy accent he uses in The Prestige is actually his real accent.
I’m Rob Buckley, a journalist who writes for UK media magazines that most people have never heard of although you might have heard me on the podcast Lockdown Land or Radio 5 Live’s Saturday Edition or Afternoon Edition. I’ve edited Dreamwatch, Sprocket and Cambridge Film Festival Daily; been technical editor for TV producers magazine Televisual; reviewed films for the short-lived newspaper Cambridge Insider; written features for the even shorter-lived newspaper Soho Independent; and was regularly sarcastic about television on the blink-and-you-missed-it “web site for urban hedonists” The Tribe. Since going freelance, I've contributed to the likes of Broadcast, Total Content + Media, Action TV, Off The Telly, Action Network, TV Scoop and The Custard TV.
