Why we chose it
Christian Bale dropped 28 kilograms for this role, a physical transformation so shocking it went down in film history. He plays an insomniac machinist in a stifling psychological thriller that shows us the world through his eyes, and gives us every reason not to trust them.
Synopsis
Trevor Reznik hasn’t slept for a year, and his insomnia has left him teetering between waking life and madness. One day at the lathe, a worker he has never seen before starts chatting to him, Trevor turns round at the wrong moment, and a colleague is badly hurt. Then notes start appearing on his fridge with a game of hangman already under way, and Trevor sets out to find whoever is playing it.
