Brokeback Mountain: Our Community's Common Bond > Heath Ledger Remembrance Forum
Heath Ledger in his own Words
delalluvia:
--- Quote ---This one is in its entirety. Ostensibly about The Brothers Grimm, the interviewer gets around to talking about Brokeback Mountain which hadn't been released yet. Matt Damon takes the lead in the interview (he was the bigger star.) The interaction between Damon and Ledger is amusing, and we find out the name of someone who turned down a chance to star in Brokeback. I've added commentary toward the end in red.

Thanks for posting this one Bruce. Heath seems to have made a friend in Matt Damon who - like Jake - also 'ran block' for him whenever he needed help in interviews. Heath seems to have brought out the protectiveness in his friends and colleagues. You go, Matt.

'I enjoyed working with Billy Bob Thornton in Monster's Ball, in the scene where he smacks me around in the bathroom."
''I enjoyed that, because he really hit me, you know? I like when people take it to that point. I remember it being an adrenaline rush.'' EW Sept 29, 2006
