Christian Bale on Heath Ledger's Joker

Heath Ledger who oh my God you know what a performance what a pleasure to have gotten to work with him and just to see him you know and how much he put himself into the Joker and I would and I was watching it going yeah this is absolutely fantastic are we in trouble here of when Chris and I first sat down we said you're not the problem what Batman is is that the villains are always more interesting right and so Batman actually he's very close to being a villain himself so let's never let him become

dull by comparison and unfortunately I was sitting there going I'm feeling a little bit dull by comparison because he is just like killing this and but I'm so proud of that film I love it The Dark Knight is absolutely extraordinary you know and it was such a pleasure to have gone away with ease I don't want to kill you
