Bad news, first bad review for Heath and TDK ::) : http://nymag.com/movies/reviews/48514/
I think they should tone down the hype a bit, maybe it has a bad influence on critics? Hope that's one of the few negative rev's for Heath. >:(

I did not find his review of Heath that negative.
What was bone chilling, was when he writes, scarier than what the joker does to anyone on screen, is what Heath must have been doing to himself.
Now I know I will not be able to go and see the film.
I know all his co stars said he was relaxed when not in character, but what do we ever really know of what goes on in someones head.
I remember reading a rue story about a British P.O.W. who was in Colditz,at the time if you were proved "mad" you could be sent back home.Whereapon you snapped back to sanity and off to fight the Germans again.
It was a was a dangerous game he played and after 6/12 of acting "mad", he finally succumbed to insanity. It was a chilling tale.
I am not implying ,before I get shot down in flames that Heath was mad.I do think that he missed his daughter terribly, he of his own admisssion locked himself in a room for a month to get to grips with the Jokers character and voice.
I suspect he was having enormous trouble sleeping and relaxing, plus back problems, hence the combination of meds he had.
He also seemed to have broken one of his rules in that, he liked to take on a light hearted role following a dark one.The Imaginarium does not seem to have been of that genre.
I suspect though will never know, that he was on that fine line when you will do just about anything to quiet your mind and get sme relaxation and sleep.
I have been pretty close to that myself.

Maggie Gyllenhaal on working with Heath in "The Dark Knight":
"I think what Heath does in the movie is extraordinary and unusual and rare and special even for the most talented and experienced actors. He hits this stride where he is totally free in the movie and I think when that happens it bleeds out onto everyone around you. Acting with him, even though the scene was very scary and when I watched it was full of tension I actually had a great time working with him because anything I threw at him he would take it and threw all sorts of amazing things at me. It was what you always hope for."
