Heath Ledger’s death in January came as a shock to us all. And now, the showing of Dark Knight reminds us even more of the loss of a great actor. Heath Ledger played the role of The Joker in Dark Knight, the sequel to Batman Returns. His great acting prowess was proven and appreciated when Dark Knight had its premiere at the AMC Loews Lincoln Square. His director and co-actors in the movie all agreed that Heath’s performance in the movie is unlike any other. Director Chris Nolan even called Ledger’s acting as “iconic performance” and that he brought a unique style to his role as The Joker.

Even his co-star Michael Cane expects an Oscar award for Ledger. Critics also have the similar thoughts. The Sun newspaper in London even agrees that Ledger’s performance deserve a Best Supporting Actor nomination in the Oscars. It seems that Heath Ledger gave all he got in this film which offers two hours of exhilarating action. Watch out for him as The Joker with sinister white face, black-circled eyes, and a mouth that’s bloody red.

The Dark Knight’s premiere was held last Monday.
The event had a black theme in honor of the departed actor.
