CHRISTIAN BALEAll of the muscles were gone, so that was a real tough time of rebuilding all of that. But you have a deadline, you have an obligation. You’ve said that you will commit to this part, and I just can’t live with myself for not really giving it as much as I can.

CHRISTIAN BALEI only sound intelligent when there’s a good script writer around.
CHRISTIAN BALEI think it’s important when you’re acting to be as relaxed as possible even if you’re doing something intense. You’re basically in a state of dynamic relaxation.
