2008-08-04 10:56:31 by John Campea in The Movie Blog
...Ledgers performance playing The Joker will long be remembered and long be talked about. A performance so strong, that it makes us forget hes not with us anymore. A performance so strong that its presentation overshadowed the shock of his passing. A performance that will be his legacy, and one that will probably earn him an Oscar nomination 6...

...Ledger's far too short, sometimes brilliant film career that makes me so teary eyed, so filled with wistful emotion, that no matter how many times I watch it, I'm still taken aback by its deceptively simple power. No, it's not a scene from Ang Lee's Brokeback Mountain (his transcendent performance there makes me weep -- for more obvious...

...Ledger's untimely death immediately brought the thought, from my journalist's acquaintanceship with him, that this was a guy with vivid colors. Not just in the artsy or New Age sense, though those are applicable enough, but literally. I was in an elevator at a press junket--inevitably, at the Four Seasons--the first time I laid eyes on him,...

8th Shot of Ennis Del Mar (and more on Heath Ledger)

2008-01-31 12:05:00 by NATHANIEL R in Film Experience Blog
