Christian Bale may have learned more than acting after starring with Russell Crowe in 3:10 to Yuma. Bale may have learned that bad boys finish first from Crowe.
Bale is accused of assaulting the two women in his life, his mother, and his size zero wife, Sandra Sibi Blazic, who is a former model and personal assistant to actress Winona Ryder.
"Christian was stressed, but he didn’t lay a finger on anyone," a source told the Daily Mail in the UK. "Instead, he flew off the handle and cussed his mother. He just got very loud because his mother was saying some very outrageous things about him, and his wife.."
"He can have a terrible temper. Instead of lashing out at his wife, he sometimes lashes out at people around him."
Crowe, you may recall, reportedly threw a phone at a hotel employee. Even though some speculate that the bad press killed his chance at receiving an Oscar for Cinderella Man, 3:10 to Yuma got lots of buzz, but no nominations for acting.
Even though Crowe didn’t get the accolades, his film career hardly missed a step.
Bale already has Terminator Salvation in the can, ready for release next May.
