I thought the movie was a bit weird, but still nonetheless, crazy method-acting on behalf of Bale. Probably my favourite actor these days.

from wikipedia..

Christian Bale starved himself for over four months prior to filming, as his character needed to look drastically thin. Allegedly, his eating consisted of one cup of coffee and an apple (or a can of tuna) each day (approximately 275 calories, or 1155 kilojoules).[4] According to the DVD commentary, he lost 28 kilograms (62 lb), reducing his body mass to 54 kilograms (120 lb). Bale wanted to go down to 45 kilograms (99 lb), but the filmmakers would not let him due to health concerns. He later regained the mass, plus an additional 27 kilograms (60 lb) through weightlifting and proper eating,with the prescription of few ampoules of Testosterone Enanthate each week along with Growth Hormones in preparation for his role in Batman Begins.
