Christian Bale Talks on the Phone With 8-Year-Old Leukemia Patient [VIDEO]

CHRISTIAN BALE may have his anger issues, but he's got a soft spot.  In the past year, he's visited victims of the 'Dark Knight Rises' shooting in Aurora Colorado and flown a 4-year-old cancer patient and his family to Disneyland to spend the day with him and his own family. And now Bale called an 8-year-old leukemia patient named Zach, who's a huge Batman fan.  He talked to him for about nine minutes.

With a little prodding from his parents, Zach told Bale about his custom-made Bat-mobile, and how he's actually convinced his little brother he really IS Batman.  Bale told Zach,  'The whole point of the movie is anybody can be Batman. Anybody can be as strong as that and help people and put good out into the world.'
