Tragic Hollywood

January 23, 2008

Another tragic story involving a Hollywood star…
Actor Heath Ledger found dead inside an apartment.

Most of my co-workers knew him from Brokeback Mountain, or even his upcoming role as the Joker in this summer’s Batman…

But my Heath memories date back to “10 Things I Hate About You” — a remake of the classic Shakespeare play “The Taming of the Shrew,” set in a modern day high school. The scene where he walks up and down the bleachers singing “I Love You Baby” was a favorite in my social circle when it came out.

When the lives of ‘my generation’ of Hollywood are cut tragically short, it hits close to home.
