Well said, Glenn--
as is painfully obvious, some here claim to know how you and i feel
about the other actors mentioned? i am impressed. does he use tarot
cards? or a crystal ball? or maybe he is an actual psychic...LOL

I'm not sure Charles Boyer's fits in the catagory as I believe his
suicide was planned while the others were not.
People like John Belushi, Chris Farley any others you can think of
that have enormous talent and so much to live for lose all
credibility with me when they decide to live a lifestyle that
scoffs at everything they've been given and sends them to their
death.
Yes, this is coming from someone who has struggled his whole career
but I'm not sorry when I say not only were all their talent and
success wasted but were not deserved in the first place if they
couldn't handle it.

i agree glenn..
why does NO ONE consider that Ledger OD'd because he voluntarily
CHOSE to consume a literal pharmacy of pills that caused his death?
what a moron. does anyone remember the initial stories talking
about the menagerie of drugs found at his apt? why reward someone
for that? i guess it's all very PC and gives good face to the
Academy. he WON because he OD's and was so young--period.
it isnt as tho he died of terminal cancer or from a heart attack,
prior to the awards, like peter finch did.

I liked TDK. I didn't fall all over myself in praise of it but it
was certainly a movie I'd watch again. As to Heath Ledger. Great
performance but I don't think he'd have won if he hadn't died young.
My 2 cents...

Yes.
But then again, I'm one of the simpletons who actually liked The Dark
Knight.
Apparently no one else in MoPo land did.
