## Caption

Christian Bale spent extensive time with the real Dicky Eklund to prepare for his role in The Fighter (2010), losing 30 pounds to reflect Eklund's physical state during his years of crack addiction. Director David O. Russell was clear that what Bale pulled off went far beyond physical transformation or surface-level imitation. "Dicky has a rhythm to him, a music," Russell said. "Christian had to understand how his mind works." #Fighter #AmyAdams #ChristianBale #Movies #MovieClips
