Heath Ledger
Wednesday, January 23rd, 2008I can’t believe it. If someone told me that an unnamed Hollywood actor had died from a drug overdose, I would never have guessed that he would be the one.
To be brutally honest at a politically incorrect time, I can’t recall a single film that I have seen of his (and I’ve only seen a couple) that I thought he was brilliant in, but it is upsetting regardless. A fine young world-class Australian talent, tragically gone far too soon. Terrible.
Details are of course still emerging, but it’s hard not to wonder at this early stage whether the overdose was intentional or not.
I’d be interested in hearing about what your favourite Heath Ledger film was in comments. For mine its one of his more recent ventures, I’m Not There, the Bob Dylan biopic.
