Michael Caine wasn't wrong tho, love to hear the cast of The Dark Knight speaking so nice positively about him.

[susyward]

A Knights Tale. Great acting from the whole cast, the story, the music - love that film

[dmdm]

What Matt Damon said though....what an amazing thing to say about Heath if you stop to think that Damon has worked with so many amazing, talented actors...I can't say I disagree with him. Daniel Day Lewis has said some very nice things about Heath too.

To hear Matt Damon, who has worked with so many great actors, say that Heath was the best actor he’s ever worked with, and to hear Joaquin Phoenix, who is one of the greatest actors of his generation, say that Heath was his favorite actor really puts into perspective just how talented Heath Ledger was.

He seemed like such a beautiful soul. We need more people like him. One of too many taken too young. May be rest in peace 💙💔

Looking back, he was so young yet so incredibly talented. He was in his 20s and did all that.

“What do you have to say about this dead guy?”

“Well he really loved living, that’s what I know for sure.”

[stephanwatson]

He was my favorite actor as a kid, I used to watch a Knight's Tale over and over

[fettbub]

The quote about darkness. Don't dismiss it being there because the person is full of life. Many of the most vibrant human beings have had a darkness within they struggle with. Often times the most lively face the deepest darkness.

I was the key costumer on Brokeback and looked after all the cast on set.
Heath loved acting but hated the publicity machine that went around after the movie promoting it. He just wanted to shoot the movie and move on.
His dream was to direct and knew his path there was through his roles on film.
Ironically in this clip the winter scene with Michelle was the very first thing we shot in pre-production. The sled hit a bump and they flew in the air with Heath landing on Michelle and hurt her leg. She ended up on crutches and almost recast!! What a different movie that would have been.

His passing left such a huge hole. what an absolute treasure he was to all who worked with him, and more importantly, to all who loved him as family and a friend. ❤

[keithwaynejones]

i love every film i’ve ever seen him in. he was at that high level. you know the ones. daniel day, bale, de niro, etc

[amyp]

This is so inspiring to to hear the truth about heath....
How good is an actor he was how he enjoyed living his life, and how gracious all the actors have such positive things to say about him....

[alincirstescu]

Heath was something else, he was a soul who shine in the dark, brought joy and made everybody feel himself/herself, courageous, spontaneous, a truly and real artist, so sad he gone so soon, RIP Heath Ledger!😢❤😢❤

[FoxTheSwift]

Interesting how many people note just how ALIVE he was before his death.

[MarkMiremont]

❤ So nice to hear positive thoughts about Heath ❤

[SlyFrye]

It's truly incredible how many people absolutely loved working with him. It's so sad now annoying how great he truly was and that he died so young.

[williamj.dovejr.]

Maggie has the dreamiest eyes...just beautiful.

[apdurn]

Sometimes the most passionate people, the most vibrant and alive ones are the ones who are actually suffering the most inside.

And they know, how beautiful life is in comparison to the pain they’re holding inside. He was an exceptional actor, why does anyone even question the fact that he could hide his pain so well.

Whatever the case, it was too soon and it was a great loss for humanity and human culture.

Bless you Heath.
Rest In Peace

A knights tale is still up there as one of my favorite movies. Such a fun film to watch.

It really is a shame that people will always remember Heath with that paint on and surround him with the darkness of the Joker (the entire movie is phenomenal! To this day still the best Joker outside Mark Hamill's voice in the animated versions/games) He always seemed so happy and loving.

Generational talent. Hes missed
