In Memoriam

Heath Ledger (1979-2008) was found dead yesterday afternoon in a Manhattan apartment. The cause of death or the circumstances are still unknown.

Heath was a great actor, truly talented, and he'll be sorely missed by the artistic community. He was so young, and still, had already amassed an impressive resume.

Principal photography has just wrapped on the next installment in the Batman series, The Dark Knight, in which Heath played the Joker, a role brilliantly played by Jack Nicholson in the original Batman movie from 1989.

He will, however, forever be remembered for playing Ennis Del Mar in the achingly beautiful Brokeback Mountain, which won him many accolades, among which his first and only Academy Award Nomination.

Following is a beautiful montage of scenes from Brokeback Mountain.
