RIP: Heath Ledger

I started this morning by saying "Holy shiiiiiiiiit!!!!". I couldn't believe my eyes when i saw the news on the net about Heath Ledger's death. He was found dead at his apartment this morning, with sleeping pills found around his body. Ledger was only 28.
After he started from teen movie like 10 things i hate about you, he took more serious roles in The Patriot, The Brothers Grimm and I'm, Not There. He's proven himself as one of the best by his performance as a gay cowboy in Brokeback Mountain, which garnered him an Oscar nomination. It's just a couple of days ago i watched I'm Not There, and he was the better actor on the movie. I'm also looking forward for his portrayal of Joker in next summer's, The Dark Knight. Even before the film is released, there are many people who praised his performance on that movie. Director Chris Nolan, and even Michael Caine said that he was terrified just by looking at Ledger when he shoots the film.
Today the film industry lost one of its most precious assets. Today we mourn for the lost of one of our best on screen actor. Rest in peace, Heath Ledger.
