   Brokeback Mountain was a great movie, and his performance in it was   
   really stellar. My personal favorite Heath film is the recent I'm Not   
   There. I wasn't a huge fan of all his movies, but I think he was someone   
   who chose quality projects and didn't do a lot of movies that were just   
   picking up the check. Not every movie worked out, but he tried a lot   
   harder than a lot of actors.

   I don't know, why do anything? I guess it's always shocking when someone   
   that young dies, particularly when his career seemed on the verge of an   
   even bigger break with the Batman film. I worked by the apartment where   
   he died on my way home from work yesterday and there were still people   
   milling about, and a whole bunch of flowers outside.
