Whoa.
Buffista Movies 6: lies and videotape
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
Holy shit. That's really too bad, if true.
oh my god.
Oh no! WAY too much talent lost if true.
Unbelievable. His poor child and Michele Williams.
I bet all the papers were caught without canned obits.
Overdose, huh? How terrible for those around him, and how terrible about the pain that drove him to it, should it have been deliberate on his part.
Overdose, huh?
Certainly seems to be what they're hinting.
Oh, God, that's awful. What a terrible waste. I haven't even been able to watch Brokeback Mountain since the first time I saw it, his performance broke me so, and I was selfishly looking forward to a long rich lifetime of Ledger performances to drink in and reflect on.
And oh, God, his poor little Matilda. And Michelle Williams, and all his family -- all those people who expected to have him with them forever.
Shit.
That is so sad and horrible.
Shit, really. Shit. I think I'm disproportionately upset. I mean, I didn't know the guy. And yet I feel like crying. I remember when I was a kid, I had a crush on him when he was in an Aussie show called Roar, and then when he was in Ten Things I Hate About You, I was weirdly proud that he'd moved to Hollywood...
God, such a freaking waste. I don't know if I'll be able to watch his Joker now.
