Optom, did you see about Heath winning yesterday ?

See my thread !

Au revoir,
hugs!

I think one of the photos is reversed. 

I agree. It is his right arm that has the firefly looking tattoo and the one with the balloons. In that picture, it looks like it is his left arm.

Good morning Heathens

       Reuters News service, saying


         For those of you who were upset that Heath Ledger was overlooked for the role of the
Joker in TDK.  He has been given the Best Supporting Actor award by the Washington DC
critics, for his portrayal of the Joker.

It is getting very close to the 1 year anniversary and that is going to be so hard. I love that he is now being recognsed for his work. I wish with all my heart that he was still here, to see the accolades for himself.
Sometimes,life just sucks.

Heath helped us all, by his acceptance of gay men and freedom for ladies too, and of others !!

Merci Heath !

I love that he is now being recognsed for his work. I wish with all my heart that he was still here, to see the accolades for himself.
Sometimes,life just sucks.

While I agree with you wholeheartedly, I want to add that Heath was indeed recognized for his work in his lifetime. IMDB lists abpout 30 award nominations and wins for Heath. It's not only now (posthumously) that he is honored for his work.

Good morning Heathens

[belbbmfan]

Thanks Chrissi. An Ennis picture is always nice. Even if he's looking worried.

This picture made me wonder. Is there a scene in which he wore that jacket?

Yes, the jacket is in the supermarkt scene, when all the heifers must of decided to calve at the same time.
