I AM SO MAD!!!
At Heath Ledger for dying!!! I know there are worse things for someone like me to be mad about, not having any ties to him really, but I AM mad. Being the 'movie buff' that I am, I can't help but feel connected to him in some small way. As those of you that know me at all, or at least from my blog, you know that 'A Knights Tale' is my second favorite movie of all time! (if you haven't seen it you should run out and rent it immediately!) And how great was he in '10 Things I hate About You'? And of course he stole our hearts in 'The Patriot'. He was just a really good actor who took his roles very seriously. Even though 'Broke Back Mountain' was very controversial, it was very brave and risky for him to do it, (not that I am condoning it by any means). He was a very loving father to little Matilda and my heart just aches for her. His passing goes right up there with John Candy and Chris Farley. It just makes me sad. Thank you my fellow movie-goers for letting me vent.

So young, so sad. It's interesting to look at a progressive time line of pictures of him. You can progressively see him looking worse and worse. Drugs do nasty things to people, including controlling their lives. I saw "A Knight's Tale" with you Shar, and I loved it! Also one of my all time faves.
I feel so out of touch. Shanel called me at work to tell me the news and I didn't even recognize the name. Sorry I can't feel your pain but any life lost that young for a senseless reason is so sad. Now I just heard President Hinckley died. THAT is hard for me.
I loved him in "A Knights Tale" too. He just had such an innocent face. I also loved him in "The Patriot" and loved that his name was Gabriel, he served that name very well in the movie. I will miss seeing him in the movies, it is definitely a life lost too soon.
