How do you wake up from a nightmare if you’re not asleep?

Brad Anderson
Trevor, an insomniac lathe operator, experiences unusual occurrences at work and home. A strange man follows him everywhere, but no one else seems to notice him.
Top critics, in their words
Until now Bale's screen persona has been defined by a graceful athleticism; here his physicality is repellent, yet he carries the occasionally creaky plot of Scott Kosar's unsettling screenplay to a resonant finish.
One can't deny the dubious appeal of the spectacle of the skin-and-bone Bale, quite possibly endangering his health for the sake of his art.
[Bale's] is a great performance, full of commitment and sacrifice, and The Machinist is one of the year's best films.
It's one of those movies that you admire more than you enjoy, but Anderson and Kosar are clearly talents to watch.
A stunt that didn't merit Bale's startling, and dangerous, transformation.
