Heath Ledger Dead at 28

BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN
The actor Heath Ledger was found dead in his apartment today, he was 28 years old.

I'm not one to gush on and on about celebs (point of fact, I hate celebs) but Heath Ledger was one that I really liked. He was a talented young actor in a day when talent and acting seem to so rarely go together anymore. (Although you can check out the most talented actor I know here).

His unbelievable portrayal of Enis in Brokeback Mountain was so moving that after watching it for the first time Seth and I conceived Ronan. No joke. I seriously considered giving Ronan the middle name Enis but Seth didn't like it.

Heath had guts, brains, talent and style. Not to mention he was gorgeous in a classic way.

He will be missed.
