Edwin Posted January 22, 2008 at 10:02 PM Posted January 22, 2008 at 10:02 PM (edited) Actor Heath Ledger Is Found Dead The actor Heath Ledger was found dead this afternoon in an apartment building at 421 Broome Street in SoHo, according to the New York City police. Mr. Ledger was 28. At 3:31 p.m., a masseuse arrived at Apartment 5A in the building for an appointment with Mr. Ledger, the police said. The masseuse was let in to the home by a housekeeper, who then knocked on the door of Mr. Ledger’s bedroom. When no one answered, the housekeeper and the masseuse opened the bedroom and found Mr. Ledger unconscious. They shook him, but he did not respond. They immediately called the authorities. The police said they did not suspect foul play and said they found pills near body. Mr. Ledger, a native of Perth, Australia, won acclaim for his role as a co-star in “Brokeback Mountain”, a 2005 film. The film, based on a short story by Annie Proulx about two cowboys who fall in love, won critical acclaim. Reviewing the film in The New York Times, the critic Stephen Holden wrote, “Mr. Ledger magically and mysteriously disappears beneath the skin of his lean, sinewy character. It is a great screen performance, as good as the best of Marlon Brando and Sean Penn.” Calls by The New York Times to Mara Buxbaum, a publicist for Mr. Ledger, and Steve Alexander, the actor’s agent, were not immediately returned this afternoon. Other reports have stated he had a high amount of heroin in his system. Edited January 22, 2008 at 10:03 PM by EdwinDeux Quote

Prince Whiskers Posted January 23, 2008 at 05:53 AM Posted January 23, 2008 at 05:53 AM This is a huge shock indeed. I don't think I'll ever forget how great he was on "Monster's Ball". His performance was so raw you could feel it in your bones. The shotgun scene haunts me to this day. Quote http://cdn.webecoist.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/modern-pet-solo-blown-glass.jpg

He had a huge career, he lived for his daughter, it just doesn't make sense. I also found out last night and I had to reread the heading for it to really sink in. I agree though about Brokeback Mountain becoming even more depressing. RIP HEATH! Quote New Signature Coming Soon!
Macaronie Posted January 23, 2008 at 04:45 PM Posted January 23, 2008 at 04:45 PM I hope they will find out any time soon, 'coz I am hearing too many (different) strories. Quote
