I have not been a particularly huge Heath Ledger fan. Certainly not a "bad" actor, but I felt his popularity was based more on his looks than on his acting prowess. So, truthfully, I was assuming that the hype surrounding his performance in DK was in response to his tragic and untimely death. Hence, I wasn't expecting all that much from his role.

I must admit that I was stunned by his performance. If you'll forgive the scatalogical reference, he scared the crap outa me . I thought it was a tour do force performance unlike none I'd ever seen before. Like others, I now regret that we will never have to opportunity to see what more, if any, he was capable of delivering.
