Hopefully, the after-life brings him more peace than this one did.

I was one of the many who was totally taken in by “Brokeback Mountain”. It’s on my top ten favorite movies list. I saw it multiple times at the theater, bought a boot-legged copy of it while it was still at the theaters and own a copy of the ‘legal’ dvd that I watch often.

I joke on here about Jake Gyllenhaal and how “dreamy” he is…but the truth is, that film made me pay much more attention to the acting careers of both he and Heath Ledger. And I’m a fan of both men.

So the news of his death has hit hard…and it’s odd because most ‘Hollywood’ deaths make me pause and then move on. This one isn’t working that way.

I hope he has his peace. And I hope that there is something in the world that will bring his daughter peace when she gets older and it’s more apparent to her that losing a father isn’t something you easily get over.

Rest in Peace, Heath.
