Oscar winning performance 🎭 ⁣ ⁣ Christian Bale spent hours with the real Dicky Eklund to learn how to emulate him properly. He had to lose 30 pounds because Eklund was a crack addict at the time. Director David O. Russell said it was much more than mimicry. He remarked: “Dicky has a rhythm to him, a music. Christian had to understand how his mind works.”⁣ ⁣ Movie: The Fighter (2010) | FilmFreeway
