The people who saw this at sundance rave about. Just from the trailers, the cinematography and music score are awesome. There a bunch of  very different trailers ...

Re: "The Machinist"

Yea, I like the look of this. Weird that there are so many different trailers. Is that a Theremin used in the soundtrack? IMDB.com reviews and critical reviews at Rottentomatoes.com were mostly all very positive.

My GOD! Now thaty's freakin dedication to a role. There's a link on the main website to a short doc on apple.com. What Bale put himself through for this role is utterly astonishing.

This looks like a killer flick and I'll for sure be checking it out in the theatre!

what did bale do to get himself to look like that?
thats scary.
 
Re: "The Machinist"

Apparently he went down to 125 pounds for the role...then had to beef up to 185 for Batman  ;D

I saw this at the TIFF - when I saw it, it was after a long day of movies (this was the fourth or fifth in a row I believe) and it was a midnight madness screening - so it was like i was an insomniac, too!

It definitely added to the experience of the film - but I don't know if I'd have liked it as much were I just watching the movie, rather than LIVING the movie  :P

*edit*
actually, thinking back, I believe he went to 205 for Batman, not 185 - but it's just my memory here...
