He was an actor. Actors act. They don't have to live their characters to be good, they put on a mask, makeup, or purple suit and go to work. GREAT actors make you forget that the guy holding a knife between some guys lips while he tells a story about his dad is the same guy that played a gay cowboy.Bottom line: Ledger's last acting gig had nothing to do with his accidental overdose. He mixed the wrong pills, plain and simple. Happens to people every day.
This movie was awesome. The whole time I couldn't help thinking that this was the movie that was going to make Ledger a BIG star. The closest thing that can describe his performance in the picture is Anthony Hopkins' Hannibal Lector.
The X-Men movies sucked. The could have done alot more with decades of material.And who did not like Batman he was an average guy albeit a millionair with no superpowers that was able to fight crime.
lol i must've been high when i wrote that. i liked the joker performance but of course i don't actually think 10 others or even 1 other person should have gone in his place.

This guy is very talented. I have only watched 1 movie from him, 4 Feathers, and he impressed me right away. I feel sad that he's gone so soon.

He hasn't really gone out yet. "The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus" has yet to hit theaters.

I bet being able to portray a character like that was fun.

Redundant but again, amazing performance. May be hyped by the hollywood tragedy but every praise is well deserved.
