Poor Heath-he seems so lost here.I have suffered from depression my whole life and he is definitely showing the signs-just lost in his own mind.Breaks my heart to see him like this...RIP...you were the best.
He was totally charming and sincere. A lot of people didnt even know anything about him until he died but it is really sad because he was very talented and his performances definitely deserve to be seen. He was my favourite actor, it is such a pain that he is not with us anymore. Heath, you are always in my heart
It is a shame to see him like this. You can tell he seems a little out of it or his mind just seems blank or in another place. He was my favorite actor and played roles so well. R.I.P Heath Ledger
After seeing him without the Joker make up on makes me realize how awesome he really was as an actor. No argument Heath Leger is the greatest actor that has ever lived rest in piece my friend
as you can see... he cant calm donw he's self... hes always moving... he's HIGH . . . well anyone with a kid and had a devoce with a wife . . . is really a seious problem...too bad most actor cant and dont know how to move on . . .RIP Heath Ledger . . . we will keep you in our hearts 4-ever . . .
Its painful to watch this, there is something up. i absolutely love this man, always will.. he never deserved hes life cut so short, love you so so much heath,, forever..
He looks like he's still stuck in character of the Joker combined with anxiety and signs of depression (his dirty, unkempt hair) and like he just isn't all there.
heath was one of the most amazing actors EVER. you see him as the joker and you're just speechless. i have never seen such a fantastic performance in any movie. and i watch a lot of movies! ;-) when i heard of his death, i was so shocked and sad. i still am. it's always the wrong people who die young. :-( rest in peace, heath, i will never forget you... you deeply touched my soul with your acting. to me, you were a gift, you were such a sweet person. i wish there were more people like you were.
i'm very sorry that stuff which has been 4 health actually killed such a wonderful actor. :( Be careful with chemical medicaments, many are unnessesary and have large side effects. Please inform yourself so things like that doesnt happen....
In my opinion Heath Ledger was (and always will be) the greatest actor ever. I am in love with him! Even if he is gone, he can never be forgotten. It's a shame that he is not here with us now but he is in a better place. Everyone has a different view on how he had died but people that are slamming him, please just leave him alone and let him rest in peace. I love you Heath Ledger. Rest in peace. -3
They are saying that the Joker Character is what killed him. He went to such a dark place that he needed meds to help get him out of it, and then he overdosed on the meds by accident. I loved his acting too, it's terrible that he's dead.
dude he's fricken hot! not kidding it's a bummer he passed, he was so young! dang! he would have been the best actor RIP man RIP! i'm going to be the joker for halloween in memory of him... :D
One minute this guy is interviewing him...the next minute he's hearing he's dead. Sweet dreams Heath. You'll always be remembered for you modesty and being a great 'Joker' R.I.P
he was extremely sad in this interview... what could cause so much depression??? bad reviews/comments?? I could see it in his eyes... no motivation for life... extremely depressed
I can tell you exactly when because he literally bumped into me on his way to this interview,at the Regency Hotel on Park Avenue in NY. (My son is Zach Mills and we were there to do press for Magorium's). It was Monday Nov 12th. Not long before he tragically died. Heath was very thin as you can see and moving fast to avoid the autograph hounds that were yelling for him as he rushed by. We were so excited to get a glimpse of him. What a tragic loss.
It's silly to say the drug overdose was "accidental", of course it was, every overdose is accidental, especially ones that cause death. If you overdosed, you took more than the amount you intended to. If you "intended" to die, thats an intentional dose, not an overdose. So really that statement doesn't say anything. Its just a friendlier way to avoid the context of his addiction that caused the death.
Saw Letterman 8 yrs prior to this when he just started his fame. He was innocent, shy and sensitive. He was too fragile for Hollywood. It is such a tragedy. Watching this was very painful.
what a stupid question "if u could give yurself a title what would it be?" man it was like he was intentionally trying to confuse heath/make him uncomfortable. man i hate 90% of interviewers!
i think what he did with the joker character was the single greatest acting in film history...its a shame it cost him his life, but he left us with the best memory of him...R.I.P.
Heath was such an amazing actor, i watch his stuff every so often still. His eyes were always filled with such emotion wether it was happiness or he was sad, and dont get me started on the smile, thoes adorable little lines he gets at the side of his mouth! uh they make me melt! Rest in Peace
he wasnt enjoying that interview, the other guy was talking just nonsense and heath didnt know what to answer even. Guy says and laughs: " mine would be like, why i do that?" and heath goes:" why(thinking) do what?" he seemed to be so humble and honest person. So sad
This guy was on his way to greatness.. What he did as the Joker is something NO ONE will ever forget. Maybe God thought we didn't deserve Heath's acting because of how the world is turning out to be.
Its 2011 and I'm still watching this, I can't believe he's gone. But a part of me wants to believe he's just relaxing hiding away from all the fame. (:
I watched the other portion when he speaks about his role with Joker and the Dark Knight. My first impression of him was wow, he's really fidgety. Almost reminds me of Johnny Depp. But if you see him, and watch his movements and speach, it's not the same as his previous interviews. It's as if most have said, he was in a different state of mind. He really took it to the next level, but I wish we could've seen more of him, I wish smoeone would've helped him before he died.
Ive had anxiety problems since 05 I could tell he was going through it I know how bad anxiety can be you gotta fight it has to be worse when millions of people know who you are and are watching fame can overwhelm the shit out of a person
I think this interview in particular reveals Heaths tiredness of life. Of course he is on medicine, for Gods sake. When you look at his eyes you will notice a slight look of 'what am I doing here'. One should understand and realize the actual situation of an actor- you have to give interviews to many people from whom not all are as happy and chilled as this guy. Eventually you can get the feeling of 'i want to go home and sleep, damn it'. R.I.P Heath !!!
It's so strange to see how handsome he is and how deep and lovely sounding his voice is and to imagine this man as the Joker. Meanwhile, it's kind of disturbing how fidget-y he is. I don't know if he's anxious or what, but it's odd for sure.
I DON'T think that he commited suicide like many people say, it was just an accident. Hey! now I noticed, Heath Ledger had a very profound voice, that's why many pople can't imitate his Joker. Maybe because their pitch is higher and it makes it more difficult. I'm impressed, he was only 27-28 when he did The Dark Knight, So much talent,
no wonder he killed himself. he seems like he had a nervous break down and took a lot of drugs and ended up just ending his own life. Rest in piece Heath. He was truly on his way to being a great actor. legendary.
I love his fidgeting in the beginning, he was so adorable :) But it makes me so sad to see the sadness and emptiness in his eyes in this interview :/ RIP Heath Ledger.
After nearly a million hits and thousands of comments I am finally going to respond. I interviewed Heath many times. Anyone who saw him that day knew something was up with him. I didn't post this interview for vanity reasons, I know it wasn't a good interview. I posted this because I wanted to show his frame of mind. You just had to be there, I guess. He seemed "lost" before, during, and after this . Heath and I were professional associates, I was simply trying to help him get through.
When Heath Ledger died we lost an acting genius R.I.P
Heath Ledger, you're a legend.
He was a GENIUS!
Poor Heath-he seems so lost here.I have suffered from depression my whole life and he is definitely showing the signs-just lost in his own mind.Breaks my heart to see him like this...RIP...you were the best.
he's got to have one of the deepest voices I've ever heard! so sexy...
my right ear enjoyed it.
Poor guy. He looks nervous.
Imagine what he would've become in ten years, if he hadn't died...
He was totally charming and sincere. A lot of people didnt even know anything about him until he died but it is really sad because he was very talented and his performances definitely deserve to be seen. He was my favourite actor, it is such a pain that he is not with us anymore. Heath, you are always in my heart
I cried watching this, he was so beautiful and it is just stupid as fuck that we lost a legend so fast :'(
It is a shame to see him like this. You can tell he seems a little out of it or his mind just seems blank or in another place. He was my favorite actor and played roles so well. R.I.P Heath Ledger
Damn, he was such a handsome guy and talented actor...I hope God's taking care of him up in heaven.
He's already dead 4 years and still everyone is missing him :( What a great guy R.I.P
I can't believe it's already been a year. We still miss you Heath.
After seeing him without the Joker make up on makes me realize how awesome he really was as an actor. No argument Heath Leger is the greatest actor that has ever lived rest in piece my friend
as you can see... he cant calm donw he's self... hes always moving... he's HIGH . . . well anyone with a kid and had a devoce with a wife . . . is really a seious problem...too bad most actor cant and dont know how to move on . . .RIP Heath Ledger . . . we will keep you in our hearts 4-ever . . .
The fact that his personality in The Dark Knight and in this interview are so very different just show what an awesome actor he was.
It wasnt an overdose . . . He died because of accidental intoxicated combination of prescribed drugs . . .
I love him soooooooooooooooooooooooo much!!!
I wish he was alive
Its painful to watch this, there is something up. i absolutely love this man, always will.. he never deserved hes life cut so short, love you so so much heath,, forever..
Heath's performance as the Joker is legendary
R.I.P greatest actor!
"I'm not there" feels like a suitable title for the interview. He seem to be elsewhere.
He looks like he's still stuck in character of the Joker combined with anxiety and signs of depression (his dirty, unkempt hair) and like he just isn't all there.
RIP Legend, you will never be forgotten, hope they will never do another joker in any movie to honor you. RIP
this is really sad he looks so strung out he really was amazing
he looks so lost..
heath was one of the most amazing actors EVER. you see him as the joker and you're just speechless. i have never seen such a fantastic performance in any movie. and i watch a lot of movies! ;-)
when i heard of his death, i was so shocked and sad. i still am. it's always the wrong people who die young. :-( rest in peace, heath, i will never forget you... you deeply touched my soul with your acting. to me, you were a gift, you were such a sweet person. i wish there were more people like you were.
He looked really sick in this interview.
RIP.
I have no words to write just tears in my eyes,RIP HEATH.
He doesn't look healthy here :(
Not a fan of this interview at all. The interviewer just keeps talking rather than drawing Heath into dialogue. We love you Heath! Rest in peace.
hope hes in heaven
Makes me proud to be Australian
He grew up on my street with his parents and they still live there...so sad.
God pls send Heath back! we'll give u justin bieber!
I love Heath Ledger and it makes me sad to know that he cant make anymore movies, because I really believe he was an amazing actor!
you have to love his modesty. how he laughs, and smiles, and how unaccustomed he is to fame. praise heath ledger.
2:42: The Joker
holy shit, this dude is interviewing joker himself, the way he smiles
...
He made the best joker ever
It's sad and pathetic that a lot of people ONLY know him because of his portrayal of the Joker.
0:34, 0:56, 1:15, Oh my goodness there are so many moments where you can see the Joker coming out in him. Wow.
You can tell hes off and not right. Sad thing...
i'm very sorry that stuff which has been 4 health actually killed such a wonderful actor. :(
Be careful with chemical medicaments, many are unnessesary and have large side effects.
Please inform yourself so things like that doesnt happen....

I love you Heath Ledger. Rest in peace. -3
God, I miss him so much. I still tear up watching his films and just seeing this, you can tell he seems a bit weak or tired. We all miss you Heath!
They are saying that the Joker Character is what killed him. He went to such a dark place that he needed meds to help get him out of it, and then he overdosed on the meds by accident. I loved his acting too, it's terrible that he's dead.

he would have been the best actor RIP man RIP!
i'm going to be the joker for halloween in memory of him... :D

Sweet dreams Heath. You'll always be remembered for you modesty and being a great 'Joker'
R.I.P
he was extremely sad in this interview... what could cause so much depression??? bad reviews/comments?? I could see it in his eyes... no motivation for life... extremely depressed
i miss you so much - i will never forget you, your smile,your personality. why you had to go??? i love you
Rest in peace, Heath! The best actor of our time!!-3 May you never be forgotten!!

r.i.p. you were one of my favorite actors.

I can't believe all these latest comments are from one year ago! I miss the joker so much!!:((((
Heath was such an amazing actor, i watch his stuff every so often still. His eyes were always filled with such emotion wether it was happiness or he was sad, and dont get me started on the smile, thoes adorable little lines he gets at the side of his mouth! uh they make me melt! Rest in Peace
LOVE HIS HUSKY VOICE!!!
i miss you heath, Rest in pace

he wasnt enjoying that interview, the other guy was talking just nonsense and heath didnt know what to answer even. Guy says and laughs: " mine would be like, why i do that?" and heath goes:" why(thinking) do what?" he seemed to be so humble and honest person. So sad
1:48 WTF WAS THAT??????
Heath Ledger you will always be remembered you were a great actor R.I.P
This guy was on his way to greatness.. What he did as the Joker is something NO ONE will ever forget. Maybe God thought we didn't deserve Heath's acting because of how the world is turning out to be.
Good interview, he was the best. Candy will always be my favorite romance movie. So sad what happened.
Rest in peace Heath Ledger.
Its 2011 and I'm still watching this, I can't believe he's gone. But a part of me wants to believe he's just relaxing hiding away from all the fame. (:
such an amazing man, always in our hearts. that man was shear brilliance. R.I.P we love you and miss you always
The first gestures he did were very familiar to the ones he did when he was the joker in his last movie
I watched the other portion when he speaks about his role with Joker and the Dark Knight. My first impression of him was wow, he's really fidgety. Almost reminds me of Johnny Depp. But if you see him, and watch his movements and speach, it's not the same as his previous interviews. It's as if most have said, he was in a different state of mind. He really took it to the next level, but I wish we could've seen more of him, I wish smoeone would've helped him before he died.
Ive had anxiety problems since 05 I could tell he was going through it I know how bad anxiety can be you gotta fight it has to be worse when millions of people know who you are and are watching fame can overwhelm the shit out of a person

even after 2 years coming on 3, i really still can't believe he's gone. i want him back
Heath was so good. I wish he hadn't died...(
R.I.P Heath Ledger. we love u
It's so strange to see how handsome he is and how deep and lovely sounding his voice is and to imagine this man as the Joker.
Meanwhile, it's kind of disturbing how fidget-y he is. I don't know if he's anxious or what, but it's odd for sure.
I love his fidgeting in the beginning, he was so adorable :) RIP Heath Ledger.
I DON'T think that he commited suicide like many people say, it was just an accident. Hey! now I noticed, Heath Ledger had a very profound voice, that's why many pople can't imitate his Joker. Maybe because their pitch is higher and it makes it more difficult. I'm impressed, he was only 27-28 when he did The Dark Knight, So much talent,
Love the joker
Yeesh when he cracks his knuckles i thought he was gonna beat him up
no wonder he killed himself. he seems like he had a nervous break down and took a lot of drugs and ended up just ending his own life. Rest in piece Heath. He was truly on his way to being a great actor. legendary.
A LEGEND ...
Men, its feels like someone else played the joker when you listen/see to him... I can't believe he played it. Thats acting it take seriously.
R.I.P heath ... onyle the best die young "
He always seemed so fidgety!
One of the many Ledger Characteristics.
R.I.P! He was an amazing actor.
Im going to so miss this guy!
one of my fave actors!

heath ledger cracking his knuckles........ouchhh i hate it when people do dat but i still love him though RIP Heath :)

oh my god... so sad he was a historic actor R.I.P. heath.
I love his fidgeting in the beginning, he was so adorable :) But it makes me so sad to see the sadness and emptiness in his eyes in this interview :/ RIP Heath Ledger.

His death could have been prevented if medical help had been called promptly!
wow he still has the same mannerisms as the role he played
