Christian Bale: I have dark moods and an obsessive streak

The Dark Knight actor admits he's difficult to live with

Wednesday, 30 July 2008

Christian Bale has revealed that he suffers from extreme mood swings.

The Batman actor, 34 – who was arrested in connection with a alleged assault on his mum and sister last week – admits he’s a very intense person.

‘Sometimes I’ll get into these strange, dark moods,’ he says.

‘They don’t last very long any more. Ever since my daughter was born, I’ve learned that it doesn’t make sense to be gloomy when you have such beauty and wonder in your life.’

Christian - who has 3-year-old Emmeline with wife Sibi - says he's lucky that his wife empathises.

‘My wife understands my occasionally obsessive streaks and she just laughs and tells me: “You’re crazy!” And I’ll just laugh right back,' he says.

The Dark Knight is in cinemas now.

Jesus I dont Know about what ever you did with your mum and sis that is a major yes but need you to be at my house for dinner dressed in a batman suit with that batman voice, is that realistic? probably not. We all love you and think you are the only real batman so why not. Yes this is a very quirky invitation, my sons think you are fantastic Ben 23, Tom 20 and Jordan 19 I dont find you attractive at all Suzanne 48 but thats beside the point. We do live in New Zealand and Its good for being a celeb actually nobody gives a whatever. Cheers Suzanne Levesque

I sympathize with Christian on this whole mum & sister issue. Many people assume that just because someone is your immediate family they want the best for you. Some family members know best how to push buttons and how to hurt and they don't necessarily know what is the best for you because they don't even take time to get to know the real you. They already have their assumptions of who they think you are and they think they have a right to tell you what to do. I suspect that this is the case with Christian's family. Many people can't even begin to understand a situation like that because they haven't gone through something like that with their families and they automatically assume there must be something wrong with Christian for verbally assaulting his mum and sister. Even if he did it it's only because he's real, and has feelings and was pushed to the limit by his "concerned" family. Now I can see even more why he's such a great actor he has had negative experiences in his life that has made him a more vulnerable and open human being who is not afraid to feel even if it's hard. So many people chose not to feel because it's just easier.
