Man this sucks. I first saw Ledger in The Patriot. Jen absolutely L_O_V_E_D him in A Knight's Tale (which due to her lust for the man means I have seen that movie like 50 times). Over the years we have seen him in a few other movies and he seemed to take on both unconventional and daring roles that may not have lit the box office on fire, but he never put in a bad performance. While Broke Back Mountain may have been his critical role, I really think that his turn as the Joker might really have put him on the map as a mainstream star, much like Brandon Lee might have been following The Crow.
By all accounts he was a genuinely nice man both on and off the set and his dedication to his craft really made him a little special in Hollywood at this time. Here we deal with the loss of a father and role-model (one of the few postives out there) and I for one shall mourn his passing.
First Brandon Lee and then Heath Ledger. But we still somehow have Paris Hilton and Britney Spears.
