The word on the street is that Heath Ledger’s final and stellar performance will garner him a Oscar. His role in the film, is a tragic reminder of the heartbreaking loss, of an incredible actor.
“The Dark Knight” isn’t a funeral, of course, but there’s no denying that Ledger’s untimely death has made it into more than just another summer blockbuster. In an age of viral video and breathless blogging, his performance is already being touted as a sure Oscar winner.
Heath Ledger was born on April 4, 1979 and had Sun in electrifying Aries. He had Moon in brooding Cancer and Venus/Mars/Mercury in sensitive Pisces. A true artist at heart, he was incredibly psychic, and passionate about the people he loved. At the time of his death, he was battling with his own inner demons, and a broken heart. He had recently suffered a breakup with his daughters mother and had just completed the Batman film. Mentally exhausted, he had been taking prescription pills, and accidentally over dosed one night. Looking at his chart, I expect the Dark Knight to sweep the Oscars, and Heath will receive a well deserved Oscar for his performance.
“The Dark Knight,” the long-awaited superhero sequel from Warner Bros. and Legendary Pictures, sold an estimated $155.3 million in tickets this weekend, setting a record for biggest three-day take and cementing the primacy of superhero movies at the cineplex.
If you haven’t seen the movie yet, GO!!! It is an incredible masterpiece and not to be missed.
