Such a shocking and terrible loss to the world of film. I always thought he seemed kind of odd but I greatly enjoyed his acting and even in films that I didn't enjoy much I appreciated his performances and ability.
I truly hope that this was simply a tragic accident and not suicide or drug overdose. Those are both such selfish paths and I'd hate to find out that he went that way. My heart goes out to his daughter. Losing a father so young... How awful. R.I.P. |
I thought this was a nice write up at EW.com:

Thanks for sharing GC. That really is a nice write-up. I'm somewhat embarrassed to admit, but Knight's Tale has always been my favorite Ledger role. It was just good, clean fun and made me laugh and smile. I agree with the writer about Batman. I'm sure most of us will be looking at the Joker and trying to pick out which bits are the character and which are Heath.
So tragic and such a waste. |
I agree with Jazzman. But, I've yet to see anything I've liked him in. Dark Knight I was looking forward to seeing him in. Oh well.

I'm very sad at how young he was... :( |
Oh, I'm sure it will be released. I hope they handle it tastefully, but this widely anticipated role just got 17 times more widely anticipated.
The bits I've seen of him as the Joker, btw, are intense and creepy in the extreme. I'm afraid the film and the role are going to take on unintended significance and a layer of meaning that was never there when the film was written or shot. I hope that doesn't cloud the issue of what I expect will be one of Heath Ledger's best performances. |
Terry Gilliam must be wondering what he did to piss off the movie making gods.
|
Boy, I'll say.
Um, I don't keep up with this stuff ... so what was the Terry Gilliam project that Heath Ledger was (till now) involved with? Poor Mr. Gilliam. Everything's sucked for him, moviewise, for a long, long, long .... long time. Such promise, too. Maybe a double feature of Brokeback Mountain and Brazil will be fitting someday. |
So, to get my grief on, I watched BBM tonight.
Still a masterpiece in my humble opinion. I cried like a funeral goer peeing onions. But I'm okay now. Now I'm watching It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World. :D |
