Exactly. It was a choice, and a heavy-handed one at that. (and I'm pretty sure it was the director's choice and not the actor's). Christian Bale is enough of an actor to be menacing in a mask without "the voice." But the director apparently didn't think just acting would be enough, and it ends up having a forced quality about it. Disappointing.
