More on Heath
-
One of the many, many sad things about Heath Ledger's death is how now he will always be That Tragic Figure. Every film performance will be touched with it.
This death reminds me of hearing Bill Cosby talk about the death of his brother when they were both just little boys. He stood by the casket and just could not believe that his brother couldn't get up. It seemed impossible and wrong that this was permanent. Why should it be? One mistake, and it's all over? Why can't we press Undo? I felt the same way when I lost my unborn children. Why does such a huge loss hang on such a small thread? It's all nonsense, but that is how it feels, like we should get a redo.
