Christian Bale teary over Ledger footage
Monday, 4 June 2012
Christian Bale broke down after watching footage of his late friend Heath Ledger at the MTV Movie Awards.
The actor visibly struggled to hold back tears when a montage of clips from the first two Batman movies showed the tragic actor in his role as The Joker at last night's ceremony.
Christian has portrayed the caped crusader in all of the three Christopher Nolan movies and struck up a friendship with Ledger on the set of the second instalment The Dark Knight.
Christian was on stage to present the movie montage alongside Gary Oldman and Joseph Gordon-Levitt when he was overwhelmed by emotion. "It's great to see Heath Ledger up there," he said tearfully after the clips were aired.
The 38-year-old Golden Globe winner then stepped away from the microphone and lowered his head to lead a moment of silence for his late friend.
Oscar winner Heath was found dead in his hotel room after a suspected overdose of subscription medication in January 2008.
"Heath was infectious; his death makes me angry because I know our friendship would have blossomed had he not died," Bale said at the time.

Aw, that makes me like Christian Bale much more than I had before. I can certainly relate. :'(

Heath, and missing Heath, seems to be in the air this week. A couple of days ago I was reviewing the new posts on the main page and for some reason the pics of him at the bottom of the page just caused me to break down in tears. That feeling has been with me for the past few days-don't know why.
Penthesilea:
Aww, (((Roux))), my sweet Heathen. :-*
Not only this week, last week also. Must be something in the air. I surfed the net, looking for a specific pic of Heath, and hopped from site to side, clicking links. Suddenly I found myself on a page from a British newspaper with an obituary, from back in 08.
Didn't make it through the whole thing. When the tears came back (after a long time of not crying over Heath), I clicked away from the article.
I don't read struff from back then. Also never reread what was written here on BM, back then. I'm happy to know everything is still here, but I don't revisit.

I don't have any particular feelings or even an opinion about Christian Bale, but relate, yes. We all can.
