Daniel Day Lewis is a method actor as well, and a class act. Method acting should have nothing to do with it.
And the Director of Photography isn't a "first year med student". He's an experienced industry professional, thus why he was chosen for the film. He should be treated with respect, like everyone else involved in the film; caterers, scenic painters, camera men, Gaffers, MUAS, and wardrobe technicians alike. Maybe Bale should try acting like a professional, like i said, he has a reputation. That's not"human", thats being a diva. There are ways of getting you're point across without flipping your shit like a child.
Cause heaven knows if anyone spoke to an Actor like that, they would be fired on the spot.
I work in/study theatre, and maybe this is a bit of a sore spot for me, but Actors storming around, throwing hissy fits is completly unacceptable, no matter who you are. I hate that people coddle them because they are "the talent". As creative people we (i hope!) all know that everyone involved in this kind of process is equally important and creative from set designer, to Props builders, to the woman making you're shoes. Plus they don't get any of the credit and work easily double the hours and are treated like dogs. The fact of the matter is that everyone is replaceable, even the actors.
