Heath Ledger dead at 28



Heath Ledger was found unresponsive in his apartment today and died shortly after, apparently of an accidental overdose of something.

Heath was in my opinion one of the best actors of our time. He was talented and not afraid to take challenging roles (i.e. Brokeback Mountain). Why is it that so many talented young people die before they make it to 30? I don't understand. A curse maybe? A conspiracy? I don't know.

It will be interesting to see what this does to "The Dark Knight." From what I understand, filming is complete and they are well into post-production with the release a good 6 months away.

For a more in depth and articulate article that does a much better job of saying what I'm trying to say, you can go here.

Our hearts go out to his family and child.
