R.I.P Sir Ulrich von Liechtenstein

I have to say that A Knight's Tale is one of my favourite films...think that might make me a bit of a sado! So even though the new Batman film was meant to be Heath's big break I was already a fan.

I spotted Melanie's post the other day about how the "blogosphere leaked the story before everyone else". Facebook seems to be an outlet for fans to gather as lots of groups have appeared. E.G. here, here and here. His memorabilia flooded eBay and various forums have been created. A shame that he didnt cause that much of a buzz during his life, lets hope that Batman does him credit!

The film is due for release in the UK on 25th June, so that clears up some of the speculation that it wasn't finished!

Rest in peace Sir William:

My fondest memory of Mr. Ledger will always be him singing "Can't Take My Eyes Off of You" to Julia Stiles in 10 Things I Hate About You. Every girl I knew fell in love with him then...

Thanks for the mention. Cheers :-)

It was his first big hit in the States. We had a slew of teen comedies in the mid-late nineties. Most of them were total crap, but that one was actually quite good, save for a really cheesy ending.
