Truly a tragedy.

I was surprised as well. I was really looking forward to him playing the Joker in Batman. He was a very versatile and talented actor. Rest in peace.

Actually, the movie was shot last year and is already finished, I believe.

Truly a tragedy indeed. I always liked him as an actor and he seemed like a nice person. Someone said to me today, "How can these celebrities be so depressed? Look at all of the money they have!" I thought it a foolish question. Money only solves financial problems, it doesn't cure personal demons or other detrimental situations in life.

Well here is a taster of Heath as the Joker.

It is a tragedy.

The 1st thing I ever saw him in was a very short-lived TV series called "Roar." He was a Celtic prince working to unite all the different tribes to overthrow Roman rule. It was all fantasy of course, but I did enjoy the Celtic feel of the show. I also thought he was very good in "The Patriot, particularly the way his character began to mimic his father's mannerisms at the end when he became obsessed with vengence on the English dragoon.

I remember Roar. That was a good show.

I remember after "Brokeback Mountain" I was watching "The Brothers Grimm." I was almost an hour into the film before finally realizing that one of the actors was Heath Ledger. Such brilliant promise gone too soon.

It is unfortunate when anyone dies. My prayers are with him and his family. May God grant him rest.
