Robb\u003c\/b\u003e (Author)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHeath Ledger was one of the most charismatic actors of his generation. After establishing a high-profile Hollywood career at the age of 21 with the lead in \u003ci\u003eA Knight's Tale, \u003c\/i\u003e Ledger pursued a series of increasingly diverse, often subversive roles that belied his image as a teen idol. Edgier films such as \u003ci\u003eMonster's Ball\u003c\/i\u003e gave tantalizing hints of his talent, but it wasn't until \u003ci\u003eBrokeback Mountain\u003c\/i\u003e that he proved beyond question the full extent of his abilities. His sudden death rocked the film industry and threw a poignant shadow over the body of work that has now become his legacy. Here, Brian J. Robb explores Ledger's relationships with actresses Michelle Williams, Naomi Watts, and Heather Graham, recounts the making of \u003ci\u003eBrokeback Mountain\u003c\/i\u003e and the film's impact, and charts Ledger's increasingly troubled state of mind. \u003ci\u003eHeath Ledger: Hollywood's Dark Star\u003c\/i\u003e paints a memorable portrait of a compelling and intense young man whose loss will be felt for years to come.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 160\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.54 x 9.03 x 6.7 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e August 01, 2008\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51758027866400,"sku":"9780859654272","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/276a0c710c94814889b7bd018220937c.webp?v=1780116812","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/heath-ledger-hollywoods-dark-star-paperback","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
