I dedicate this video to Heath Ledger today, another unique and beautiful creative talent gone too soon. Reminds me of Heath, as does this song...miss you already. I always found Heath Ledger to be a beautiful dark presence. When he died this week I was instantly wanting to make a tribute to him, but i wanted it to be right.Today, I am updating, because the autopsy came back as an accidental overdose...for that I am strangly thankful, but also more sad. This movie montage of clips from Brokeback Mountain and The Patriot shows a story of a man who captured you immediately and drew you in with the subtlety of his eyes and presence. This little movie is set to one of my favorite haunting amazing songs, "For Someone" by another beautiful dark artist, Jake Walden. His music is so raw and beautiful, like David Gray, or Damien Rice. Also reminds me of Bruce Springsteen, Tom Waits and Coldplay in a weird way. I hope it reminds everyone how talented and touching Heath's work and time here truly was. R.I.P

  • I remember when I found out he was dead. I was 15 and was watchin TV before school&then I found out on the news,I called my mom and cried&she told me I'd prob just misunderstood the situation.Then she called&told me he really was gone, I cried all my way to school&when the others started talking about it,I went to the toilet&cried even more.it's a bit ridiculous when u think about it,but my wall was covered with pictures of him & I have almost all of his movies.He's made an impression on my life
