Bale refers to HFPA as "oddball characters" he encounters on press junkets. Now, he thinks of them as "wise and respectable." In his gracious acceptance speech, he salutes the "quiet, stoic character" created by Mark Wahlberg and references the potential punch-up between supporting actress contenders Amy Adams and Melissa Leo. He concluded with a heartfelt moment via the camera to his little girl at home.
