Such sad news.
This was the moment in Brokeback when I fell completely in love with Heath Ledger - I already admired him so much for his acting, but this particular moment, when Jack Twist is remembering a long-ago fireside hug complete with gentle rocking back and forth, Ennis mumbling unintelligible sweet nothings into his ear, humming and rocking, rocking and humming . . and then Jack in the present day staring longingly at Ennis as he drives off in his beat-up truck . . it's a devastating moment in the movie and maybe the most tender, naturally loving moment ever filmed between two men.

an incredible moment.
I cannot believe he is dead.
I know, Sheila. It's so sad. I'm having a hard time with it. Right up there with River Phoenix. Both so talented, and both could pull you into their hearts somehow - they could both evoke pure empathy. Very unusual. Marilyn could do it. So could Judy. Sad.
Love you. xxx Stevie
