Going against what I set out to do, but I couldn't not say something about Heath. It's so tragic and sad, particularly as I am from and live in Perth where Heath lived until he was 16 and still has family here. One memory I have about Heath's film career was seeing 10 Things I hate about you, when I was about 16 at the cinemas in Midland and then driving past Guildford Grammar high school and thinking "That's where he grew up and now he's a hollywood star." At the time it seemed awe-inspiring, and this was back in 1999 when Perth didn't really produce many entertainers. And also I was a 16 year old with a bit of a crush.
Anyway, I digress. It's so sad, when I think of all the talented roles he would have taken on. At that time, he hadn't done a lot on the US but had done a terrific job in Two Hands. And since A Knights Tale, the rest is history. What can I say, I'm a bit in shock.
