The Machinist (2004)
Trevor Reznik, a machinist, has lost the ability to sleep. But this is no ordinary insomnia. Trevor has not slept in a year. Fatigue has led to a shocking deterioration of his physical and mental health. Suspicious of his appearance, Trevor's co-workers first shy away from him, then turn against him after he's involved in a shop accident that costs a man his arm. They blame Trevor for the accident. He has become a liability to himself and others, and now they want him out. Plagued with guilt, Trevor's shame becomes suspicion, then paranoia, when it appears his workmates are conspiring to have him fired –- or worse. (read more)

Director Brad Anderson creates an...

Christian Bale (Batman Begins) rocks in the Brad Anderson (Session 9) film about a man (Trevor) who not only hasn't slept in a year, but is losing weight because of it and looks like he has an eating disorder.
