I was never a weird insane fan, but a fan I was. I always admired him becasue he didn’t take every movie role and he seemed to steer himself away from doing anymore teen movies. I loved him in the Patriot, his performance in Monsters Ball was great and A Knights Tale was funny to say the least. I have been meaning to see Cassanova since it came out, but haven’t yet. And then there is Brokeback Mountain which I still need to see. Once in awhile I would look him up on the internet to see what he was up to because he just didn’t force himself down peoples throats. I was actually reading recently that he was going to be the new Joker in the new Batman movie coming out this summer. I really thought that was a brilliant decision by whoever casted him. I knew as soon as I read that my interest was renewed in Batman.
It is a shame that some one so talented and seemed like such a great guy could go like that. Its a shame when anyone goes, but I think this was different. He wasn’t a drug addict and he wasn’t plastered all over the tabloids. I will probably have a Heath Ledger movie-a-thon.
My family’s thoughts and well wishes go out to Heath’s Family and Friends. I know he was more to them than he was to his audience, but we appreciated him just the same.
