I also wanted to express my sadness over the death of Heath Ledger. I have enjoyed watching him since The Patriot and A Knight's Tale (which I really liked), and I was just so sad and incredulous when I heard the news on the radio yesterday afternoon. Since we live not far from NYC, we're getting lots of news coverage about it. I heard this morning on the radio that he was interviewed last fall, while he was filming his part as the Joker in The Dark Knight, and he spoke about really getting into his parts - in this case, to the point of not being able to sleep and having to have to start using Ambien to get to sleep. ::sigh:: I suspect that was part of his tragic end - I can't help but believe that this was accidental. His poor little girl - what a waste of talent and life.
