Actor & Director: Great Collaborations in Movie

Source: Empire

可能是英國雜誌的關係？Empire 選 Bale 以及 Nolan 的合作為電影界最好的組合之一。再怎麼說，這兩個人都是英國人（Bale 跟 Nolan 似乎都是雙重國籍者），而且還在好萊塢闖出一片天，Empire 會選他們也是可以理解的。

內文以及翻譯如下：
What's The Secret Of Their Success?
Christopher Nolan tends to make films about obsessed people, who throw themselves body and soul into whatever task it is that they have to do. So who better to work with than Christian Bale, one of the most serious and intense actors around, committing to a role completely and displaying an infamously passionate feeling for the subject. Only without the vigilante justice or all-consuming double-life, we hope.
他們兩人成功的祕密是？
Christian Nolan 偏好描寫把自己的肉體以及靈魂投入某個任務中的執著角色，還有誰能夠比 Christian Bale 認真且張力十足？他是 Nolan 最佳選擇。Bale 總能成功完整的達到角色所需，展現他過人的熱情。希望我們能夠看到私刑者或者是蠟燭兩頭燒的雙面生活以外的故事。

Were They As Good With Anyone Else?
Nolan's also turned the screws on Guy Pearce and Al Pacino to great acclaim, and has Leonardo DiCaprio next in his sights, so it's fair to say that he's not limited to working only with Bale - who's also been great in films from The Machinist to Empire of the Sun.
他們是否也能與其他人合作？
Nolan 也曾經與 Guy Pearce（註：Memento。記憶拼圖）、Al Pachino（註：Insomnia。針鋒相對）擦出美麗的火花，他下一部片會與 Leonardo DiCaprio 合作（註：Inception。台灣翻為：全面啟動）。所以我們可以說，他不會限定自己與 Bale 合作。Bale 也曾在 The Machinist 以及太陽帝國中有著精湛的演出。

Best Film
The Dark Knight, Bale's Batman truly coming into his own and facing a worthy adversary in Heath Ledger's Joker while Nolan amps up the pace and throws major moral dilemmas into a summer comic book action movie.
兩人的佳作
『黑暗騎士』。Bale 表現出了屬於他自己的蝙蝠俠，遇上由 Heath Ledger 扮演棋逢敵手的小丑。Nolan 在明快的節奏中在暑假漫畫動作英雄片中加入道德掙扎的成份。
