wow, that last statement by ledger was truly disturbing.

[petermatthew27]

It's ironic in that, he said it with such verve; looking forward to resting was the intended meaning. So certain, and yet so unaware. RIP Heath.

I didn't know he was originally supposed to be in The Tree of Life. I wonder how differently the movie would've been if he did it instead of Brad Pitt. Either way, it would've been the way Terence Malick wants it, because a movie of his doesn't get released until it's as perfect as he thinks it is. But it creeps me out knowing that Heath's been dead for almost 4 years now and there he is, jokingly saying that once he'd make that film, he'd drop dead; instead he did having never done the film.

...I know it was a statement about him having a period of resting in his busy life. But... wow. Tearing up anyway. It's unfair.

@karaokevox Sorry, but it's not a prophecy. It was a small joke that some people have taken out of context - he hadn't filmed Tree of Life - had he - then maybe it would have been a bit prophetic. What happened was a tragedy and accident. I can say I am going to die, it's not a prophecy - it's simply true.

@Cinemadman Yeah, whew...you're right. Good thing he avoided being in a challenging arthouse film instead of dying of a drug overdose in New York. That was close! He really dodged a bullet!

[Cinemadman]

I hated The Tree of Life. I mean no offense but thank God Heath dodged that bullet. I completely lost respect for Brad Pitt's career because of this film. I was not going to remember Heath Ledger for doing a rubbish film like The Tree of Life. But anyways Rest In Peace Heath.

[TheHague67]

i guess he was going through a custody battle for his kids when he Overdosed. Poor guy. Just proves that not even all the money and fame in the world brings happiness. IMO its Jesus

[prefix32]

it's kind of ironic

[memorygirl55]

I thought I had lost this but it is here, as the movie as only just been realesed in the last few wks >End of July 2011, of course with Brad Pitt as was said after Heath Passed, it has taken a long time to come to screen?The early clips from the movie I believe look thesame as the ones that are out now. I believe there is another interview with Heath, as at the end he says when that is done he was taking a longtime off go to europe grow a belly to bounce hisdaughter on!!I If you hear send plz.

@TheBigjay927 Terry Gilliam shouldn't even be able to use the same dry cleaner as Terrence Malick.

"Then I'll drop to the ground dead"

Very eerie.
