The Last Laugh

And so “The Dark Knight” will join “The Crow” as a comic book oriented film that’s going to have a seriously tragic and creepy aspect added to it: Watching a promising young actor performing his last role as a death obsessed comic book character.

It will be a while (if ever) before we find out exactly what happened to Heath Ledger (whom I’ve liked in every film I ever saw him in.) I sure hope they don’t rule it suicide: Losing a loved one at such a young age is tragic enough for the family; but suicide is a whole new level of trauma.
