Editorial
Christian Bale made headlines with his jaw-dropping transformation for this film, shedding over 60 pounds to play an insomniac losing his grip on reality. But don’t let that overshadow the film itself: an acclaimed and nightmarish psychological thriller, reminiscent of Lynch, Fincher, and Aronofsky.
