Let's see, he stars in Casanova as a womanizer and stars in Breakback Mountain as a gay sheepherding butt bandit. How can he have any credibilty as either.
I suspect your sentiments are shared by many (former) HL fans, and that he's going to end up regretting this career move.
Really? 1981? Even KKK Byrd was beyond that by then.
Ledger is a real maroon.
Let me guess, Park Slope? I seriously doubt Ledger would survive in Bay Ridge or Gravesend, to say nothing of Bed Stuy or Crown Heights.
I agree with what you said 100%. That's EXACTLY what happened. The "media" is also hyping the fact that he "fell" for a FEMALE on the set of the sheepherder movie and that they were able to pull off having a child.
Heath who?
Not that I believe Ledger is gay, but the fact that his girlfriend got pregnant doesn't tell me much. This guy managed to father several kids while he was flitting around the NJ Statehouse.
FWIW, I'm originally from Bed Stuy and I look a hell of a lot more like Heath Ledger than I do Tookie Williams.
Nice work, Heath Loser. Insult an entire state and a religious group. Gee, I wish I was as open-minded and enlightened as you.
I imagine after his performance in Broke Dick Cow Girl that his foot is not the only thing that went in his mouth...
That lynching crack is gonna go over real good in the South. Dumbazz.
I liked him and was trying to ignore this queer film he was in so I could continue to watch his other movies. But no they always gotta open their stupid traps.
I heard he was looking forward to some back end participation in the grosses.
Forgot all about that. He was one bad dude.
I was thinking about renting that, is it crappy?
"Damn! I didn't know that there were lynchings goin on during the 80s in West Virginia."
Probably at Senator Byrd's house.
But five times the gross-out.
He was wrong.
Actually, it wasn't entirely his fault. He was mostly a kindly brain-dead old man. Baker was calling all the shots.
How old are you? Bed Stuy has been da ghetto since the 1940s.
I saw the movie on Sunday along with my wife and two other couples. It was not my choice but one cannot always pick the flick to see when in a group. That being said, I did expect it to be a well made movie, despite the subject matter, as most critics have been raving about it.
Well, it is over 2 hours long. For the first half hour it is so Slooooooowwwwwww. The rest of the movie is not much better. Plus Heath Ledger mumbles his way through his scenes to the extent that most of us could not make out what he was saying much of the time.
After the movie, all 6 of us felt the movie was mediocre at best, slow moving, boring, too long, etc. We could not understand how the critics could rave about the movie other than it being to push the gay agenda.
Last night the Critics Awards gave it Best Picture. My wife and I could not believe that BS. What a pile of crap. Now, I suspect the Oscars will follow through. Hollywood cannot wait to keep shoving its gay agenda down our throats. Having seen such good movies as Walk The Line and Capote, a movie about a blantantly gay writer, Breakback Mt. is not in the same league as either of them. The fix is in.
