Heath Ledger’s Final Movie July 22, 2009

Posted by Helen in : Movies , trackback

It’s fair to say that The Dark Knight was a hell of a movie and it was Heath Ledger’s performance as the Joker proved to be the best performance of his tragically short career.

While everyone believed that the Joker was a role that should never have been tampered with, it was a part that belonged to Jack Nicholson. But Ledger proved everyone wrong and scooped the best Supporting Actor Oscar earlier this year.

But the actor will grace the big screen on last time later this year with The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus, directe by Terry Gilliam. The filmmaker brought in Johnny Depp, Colin Farrell and Jude Law to complete the film after Ledger died in memory of the actor.

The story of Dr Parnassus and his extraordinary ‘Imaginarium’, a travelling show where members of the audience get an irresistible opportunity to choose between light and joy or darkness and gloom. Blessed with the extraordinary gift of guiding the imaginations of others, Dr Parnassus is cursed with a dark secret.

Take a look at images from the movie:
