The Machinist or How One Moment Can Change Everything

Trevor Reznik (played by Christian Bale) hasn't slept in over a year. He works in a factory as a lathe operator, and seems to be something of a loner. The other coworkers don't trust him, and then eventually turn on him, due to him causing a coworker to lose an arm in a machine accident. Trevor slowly has been spiraling into madness over the last year. Losing weight, hallucinating and becoming paranoid at the possibility that his coworkers are out to get him. All of this culminates in an ending that will shock and amaze you.

This movie in my opinion is truly on of Bales' greatest films. Starving himself to lose over 60 pounds for this movie, he creates a character that truly is haunting to look at and whose behaviors really show you the depth of madness guilt can create. I am really surprised as to how many people have never seen or even heard of this movie. I absolutely believe if you haven't seen this one, go out this very second, and find it!
