Some of those still hospitalized from the Dark Knight tragedy got a visit today from the movie's star, Christian Bale, reports the Denver Post. Bale visited Aurora, Colo., with his wife and spent a few hours at the local hospital visiting the wounded along with doctors and first-responders. "It was good for the patients," says a hospital official. "We hope it was therapeutic for them, and all the staff really appreciated him coming." Bale asked that the media not be notified of the visit. (More Dark Knight massacre stories.)
