I always wondered about how Heath died. The media was yapping about his role as the Joker getting to him too deeply and psychotically and that it drove him to madness of sorts. I didn't know about all the drugs and other things that came to light later. So sad to lose such a talented and gifted actor. My favorite pictures with Heath were A Knights Tale and Brokeback Mountain.

I remember the day he died. I wasnt a fan but i watched a few movies and was really looking forward to the dark knight. Not many actors deaths bother me but his passing did. I was in the midst of oppiate addiction and this really opened my eyes. It could have been me. I went to rehab 6 months later and sobered up. Rip Heath.

Not the biggest fan of the Nolan trilogy. Dark Knight is the best one for sure and Heath did an excellent job. You felt his presence throughout the film. His joker just captivated your attention. Very similar to The Hitcher. I just prefer Nicholson's Joker and Burton's world more.

@melaniacoppola702 Жыл бұрын

Wenn ich über ihn und seinen Tod nachdenke, frage ich mich jedesmal warum kein Mensch mitbekommen hat, wie schlecht es ihm ging. Ich habe keinen Zweifeln daran, dass seine Emotionen ihn überwältigt haben und er keinen Umgang damit fand, außer zu Medikamenten zu greifen. Anderseits war gerade seine emotionale Welt, die ihm zu der hervorragenden Schauspielkunst gebracht haben. Weder glaube ich, dass er der Gefahr seiner Entscheidung bewusst war, noch, dass er der glückliche Mensch war, den viele seiner Freunden und Kollegen beschreiben. Die ganze Welt schaute auf ihn und dabei wurde seine Not völlig übersehen. Spätestens wenn er selbst erzählte, dass er nicht länger als 2 Stunden schlafen konnte, pausenlos dachte, die Trennung von der Ehefrau und Tochter so schmerzlich war, hätte man ihm dringend raten müssen, innen zu halten und auf sich -ganz anders als mit Drogen/ Medikamenten- Acht zu geben. Ein großartiger, feiner Mann und Schauspieler.

This guy was definitely one of my favorite actors.. love him and Batman and a Knight's tale but the one movie I sure wish you would have made would have been portraying Andy Gibbs. Often look at pictures of Andy Gibb's in different stages of his life as well as Heath ledger's life and I quickly found that both of these two guys had a lot in common and looks and I always thought he would be the one to do the best job of portraying Andy Gibb's life story. But when I found out he past a way it quickly send my soul in to a sad spin.. knowing that there's no one in the world that could have portrayed Andy gifts better than Heath ledger could have done.. R.I.P

That's what I never could understand. It said 6 different drugs at once. That's not always the case. Because anyone of those drugs stay in ur system for at least a week. So he could have taken 5 of those drugs within a weeks time. Then took the 6th drug on the day he died or even the day before.

"The best that, the best this", when are people going to learn that there is no such thing as "best" in art, in my opinion at least. His art is great because of his passion, commitment, soul, his preparedness, his curiosity, his perseverance to show his take on the Joker. Lastly because he worked hard not because he was the "best". That's what shows through the screen. No, Heath Ledger was not the "best" Joker, but a very, very great Joker who is immortalised in cinema.

I believe it was the combination of the drugs and not the intention of the drugs used. Unfortunately, and very sad, this has happened to others. We don’t know about the others because they are not famous people. He was too young and was very talented. I may have been troubled with depression and sleep disorders but he also loved his daughter too much to leave her intentionally. I can only hope and pray that those who are close to her have told her the same.
