No long post here..just a random point...As we all know, the unfortunate and untimely death of a hollywood "actor" Heath Ledger has headlined the most recent of entertainment broadcasts. God rest his soul, but the aussie will be remembered more for his overdose, then his acting ability...my big issue with his fame is simple: put any straight man into a homosexual and controversial role..and we have a great performance..How can respectable critics be truthful regarding Heath Ledgers portrayal of backwoods queer, and not face the wrath of the liberal media? I have nothing against the homosexual way of life...a less convential appetite for life if you ask me.. Heath ledgers credentials include "Ten things i hate about you"...a popular and predictable teenage movie where the main character is paid to take out a shy and socially defiable girl, to gain access into her younger sister. Grade F. He also had leading roles in "a knights tale" and "the order"...both less then stellar.....Heath (RIP) had a breakout role, in "Monsters Ball", where he portrayed a police officer who saw the truth behind racism and was torn by his own family values...The only worthy scene is where he is giving the local working girlr her comeuppance. Once again, not even a nomination by the academy. So why the fallout...why the overemotional media?.....Because he played gay on film...he was "the first of his kind"..."heroic and inspirational"...Were ya? There is such a double-standard in american media. John Rocker blasted blacks and gays and he is still crucified.. An apology was not enough...but Heath Ledger overdoses on drugs...let me repeat that..overdoses on drugs, a role model for young, impressionable teenager uses drugs, and he is still remembered and missed publicly.
