HEATH LEDGER, 28

HEATH LEDGER DIES.

I was shocked with this breaking news on tv this morning while I was preparing the kids for school. So after my two kids left, I immediately checked Yahoo if it’s really true. Yes, Heath Ledger is dead and he was only 28 years old. He was found dead at his New York apartment and possibly due to pill overdose. Then after, I went to theage.com.au, webpage of Australia’s prime newspaper, and the news about Ledger’s death is on the headline.

Heath is not one of my favorite Hollywood actors but I like him because of his manly charisma and intelligent choice of roles, and because of the fact that he was an Australian. I have a soft spot for Australia since I stayed there for 2 1/2 years, my youngest Carl was born there, and my hubby is still there right now. So this news is a bit sad (I know every death is), like when Steve Irwin died in 2006, plus he left behind a 2-year old daughter Matilda.

The only Heath Ledger movies I have watched are 10 Things I Hate About You with Julia Stiles, and A Knight’s Tale with Shannyn Sossamon. But I saw trailers of Casanova and Brothers Grimm, he was a very good actor. I bought the Brokeback Mountain dvd while I was still in Oz but I wasn’t able to watch it until now. So after writing this, I would definitely get that dvd off the cabinet and watch it. He was the new Joker and seeing from photos, he fitted the role. I wonder if he finished filming Batman?

HEATH LEDGER may you rest in peace.

As a tribute, I wish to post this Youtube video from 10 Things I Hate About You. Who would forget how Heath Ledger serenaded Julia Stiles with the song Can’t Take My Eyes Off You, and those funny dance and his running around to scape the school guards? That was the sweetest version I’ve seen, and definitely one of the highlights of the movie! So here it is:

    It’s definitely sad for all Australian, Heath Ledger is a young promising star that will follow the foot step of Mel Gibson, Russell Crowe, and many others. I Hope Heath will win an Oscar posthumously. May you rest in peace Heath Ledger.

    Yes, such a fine actor. Because of his choice of roles I was beginning to think that he would follow the footsteps of Johnny Depp. They have similar charisma and mysterious aura.

    I had a hard time believing this when I saw it on another blog earlier today - had to go to CNN before I WOULD believe it. Stunned.

    I definitely enjoyed that movie! :grin: I’m sure someone is going to take his place - in fact there will probably be 100 applicants. You know what it’s like in the movie industry.

    maybe he was drunk as to why he died. there are drug interactions when a sleeping pill is mixed with alcohol. sya ba yung nasa patriotot na anak ni mel gibson?
