I wanted to experience this movie alone to understand how deep down inside Heath Ledger had to reach to make the Joker so real and what may have pushed him to his level of insomnia and anxiety to accidentally overdose. What a tragic loss that was. Not to lay blame. He gave his all to his craft and he was obviously a very gifted actor and it may have been difficult for him mentally. He must have known the success this role was going to bring him. Heath succeeded in every way by showing you the joker from his broken child to his twisted adult self. The cause and effect. He brought the joker to life. This movie is by far the best movie I have ever seen in my life. I left the theatre in tears. Not just for the story line and the characters, but for the performance of a lifetime by Heath Ledger that can never be outdone... this movie tapped into my emotions in a way I was not prepared for and I am going to see it again and again. Heath left his mark on the world with this performance and died a legend. My heart goes out to his family for their tremendous loss. My heart is broken because he did not get to share this success with his family and was robbed of his opportunity to relish in his much deserved reward. This movie will certainly sweep the Oscars in every category including best supporting actor. I do however think that it should have been rated R for it's violence. I think that it is too much for a young mind to process. There were scenes that made me cringe and I am an adult. I recommend this movie to anyone who enjoys the art of acting. It is by far the Best Batman movie ever....
