From 2002 to 2003, Bale starred in three feature films, none of which were successful at the box office. Laurel Canyon (2002), an independent film about love and longing, divided critics. The film's script and the director's ego were questioned, but critics, by and large, agreed that Frances McDormand outshone the rest of the cast, including Bale.[17]

Interestingly, Bale's role in Portrait Of A Lady was fairly short, only four or five scenes, but his character's talked about so much by the leads that he seems more prominent. He would, though, be the main protagonist in his next film, an adaptation of Julian Barnes' Metroland. Here he played Chris, a former photographer who enjoyed affairs, drugs and revolution in Sixties Paris but is now settled in the London suburbs of the late Seventies with straight-laced Emily Watson. When an old friend shows up, asking him him to give up his cosy life and join him on the road, and undermining his marriage, he's forced to examine the choices he's made and still might make, and question his own notions of freedom and happiness. It was slow stuff, but thought-provoking, and well-played by Bale and the ever-excellent Watson.
