The Dark Knight is brilliant. Has anyone seen or written the definitive personal essay on Heath Ledger?

I haven't seen it yet - can't wait!
Haven't seen a good essay around but there's a bio coming out in the next few months. Can't for the life of me remember who is publishing it but the info has come across my desk/screen in the past week (don't know where it is now). I'll let you know when it pops up again!

yes, it is. heath is extraordinary. i saw it on Tuesday night. luke davies write a nice piece about heath after he died but it wasn't definitive.

i mean 'wrote a nice piece . . .'

OK. I haven't yet written it but I have a thing or two to say about Heath's performance.

The movie as a whole, though, is absolutely super wonderful.

Sophie, Luke's piece was lovely, yes. Despite the fact that I - somewhat misleadingly - said 'personal', i'm interested in reading an essay by someone who actually never met HL. I am sure they will come in time. LM: I look forward to that bio then. Joshie: don't keep us in suspense, then - your thoughts?
