      Nicholson actually did say when asked about Heath Ledger's death that "he warned him" but there was never to my knowledge any follow up to what exactly Nicholson meant when he said that. Never confirmed he spoke to Ledger about the role etc. It seems as though people just ran with that one quote and made it seem like Nicholson directly warned Ledger about playing the Joker. Maybe he did maybe he didn't. Who knows. Plus the vid of him saying when asked is a bit creepy as he is smoking a cig when asked, asked whoever asked the question to repeat it then said what he said and took another drag of his cig while a few ppl laughed in the background. smh.
      Regardless Ledger did a fantastic job in the role imo. RIP.

    I think there’s an unhealthy perception that Heath’s death was caused by delving deep into this role. Everybody on set of the movie said that he was able to snap in and out of character on a dime, Michael Jai White said he would go from being in character to cracking jokes and telling stories the second that the cameras stopped filming. Christopher Nolan said Heath was so invested in the process of film production that he would ride in the cars that filmed the street scenes - even though Heath was never in those shots and had no intention of being in them. He just had a love for film making. Heath’s parents said that their last phone call with him ended with them warning him not to mix prescription medications to treat his stomach ache, to which he said he’d be fine and they should relax. He would overdose just a few days later, but likely due to not being well informed on the drugs he was taking to treat his stomach pains.

    • @riptidepictures8105
      @riptidepictures8105 Год назад +20

      There’s a heartbreaking statement Chris put out after Heath’s death recounting the times that Heath would stay on set long after he was scheduled to leave just to watch how movies are made. Michael Jai White recounted something similar about Heath wanting to be in the room in full Joker wardrobe and make up for their scenes even though their coverage was shot separately, meaning Heath would get in full costume even when he knew he wouldn’t be filmed on those days. He would do so because it would provoke a better performance from the other actors when they could physically see the Joker Vs pretending he was there

    • @Noxofspades-lh7bj
      @Noxofspades-lh7bj Год назад +14

      Yeah, I'm really tired of those rumours how his death was "connected to the joker" and how he went crazy because of the role.
      And Heath was so humble as well. Always asking ppl how he was doing. He'd even ask the supportive cast, about what they thought about his voice.
      Heath had anxiety about every role, doubting himself. But luckily he always stuck with them. I loved hearing how he was behind the scenes, especially for the Dark Knight and Brokeback mountain. He also method acted when it came to that role. He locked himself in his room, to ger into the psyche of his character. He came up with every little movement, surprising and impressing the cast. He was so humble there as well, asking ppl there how he was doing. And he himself got emotional when he heard how his acting was making the crew cry. He also made a little change on set that basically showed a quiet way of his character showing how he loved Jake's character. He acted like a little kid as he excitedly told the script writer, Diana, "i have a surprise for you!" She saw him as a son and thought him being this excited was so cute. And she cried when she saw what he did. It was really sweet. And that change made it into the movie. I cried seeing the change too cuz it was also heartbreaking, and it makes me more emotional to know that was Heath's idea.
      I saw his interviews and his documentary: i am heath ledger. He seemed like a geninue, down to earth person. It makes me more upset how his dreams of being a film director was never fulfilled😢

    • @aaronbeatdown
      @aaronbeatdown Год назад +9

      I feel like the narrative takes away from his performance as well. People played the Joker before and since and those people are fine. His performance wasn't because the Joker is some mythical role that only few can handle as it warps your mind. It was because Heath Ledger was a phenomenal actor who did intensely dive into the character as he did all of his characters. It's easy to see his ability in some of his early movies like The Patriot or A Knight's Tale, which honestly only works because of his ability to straddle the line between camp and seriousness in that role.

    • @Noxofspades-lh7bj
      @Noxofspades-lh7bj Год назад +5

      ​@@aaronbeatdown yeah, it's pretty insulting that ppl are bascially saying "he was too fragile to handle method acting. And was so mentally unstable that he couldn't do his acting role properly." Like come on! And yeah! Other movies have already displayed his acting abilities before. And he method acted before, especially for brokeback mountain.
      Specifically monster's ball, which got him the brokeback mountain role. And Nolan chose Heath because of Brokeback mountain. That role brought out the best of his abilities when it comes to subtle, quiet roles. Like damn.
      It's also insulting that ppl gave so much hate when he was casted. It's one thing to have doubts cuz Heath never played a villain before. And the attachment to jack Nicholson's joker. But ugh, the petition to stop him from getting the role and the disgusting things that were said about him cuz he played " a gay cowboy" was ridiculous.Especially cuz you can tell everyone who had this complaint didn't watch the movie. So embarrassing and remembering that nonsense is hatecrime on my braincells.

    • @aaronbeatdown
      @aaronbeatdown Год назад +7

      @@Noxofspades-lh7bj What's funny is that he wasn't even method acting. He spent a lot of time nailing the look he wanted for the character, did some deep character study and had a journal for it. I've heard Michael B. Jordan talk about the exact same process getting ready for either Black Panther or Creed (I can't remember which). As stated above, he was joking and playful with everyone on set. Michael Jai White talked about people wanting to give him a wide berth for the character and said that Heath was the one that would engage them in a conversation. Said Heath was just having fun playing and that the set was probably one of the most relaxed sets he's worked on.

    The hospital was actually a four-story former Brach's candy factory that was already scheduled for demolition, so it was perfect for the job 👌 fun fact about the hospital explosion is that it was never in the original script, it was Neil Corbould ( the special effects supervisor) that believed it could be done and suggested it too Nolan, who loved the idea so much that he added it to the script.
    The reaction by Heath and the detonater was also improvised, because he wasn't aware that there was a delay in the explosion, so he just reacted in the moment 👌 man was a genius, equally uncomfortable to watch and impossible to look away from.

      Sadly this isn’t entirely true. I am the biggest Ledger fan every and thought the scene was improvised for years but it’s not. It’s one of the biggest movie myths. Ledger and the production crew all knew their was gonna be a delay in the explosion. It was put there to control the scene just in case someone messed up. Ledger did rehearse the walk a bunch of times before they destroyed the building. The reaction to the delay is all him tho! He was told to do whatever he felt Joker would do if the explosions suddenly stopped. He’s my favorite actor of all time and I really wish that the delay wasn’t supposed to happen but it was. Their are plenty of other improvised scenes in the movie that he did do, he made this movie what it is. An absolute masterpiece. We’ll never see another Joker like him, he’s the Clown Prince of Crime always!!

    58:48 I don't think Heath Ledger kill3d himself, I think he took sleeping pills because he had problems sleeping due to jet lag, if I remember correctly, but he mixed it with other medication he had been prescribed for other problems. He thought it would be okay, but it was a bad mix and he sadly died. People painted his death as if it was a consequence of playing the joker and getting into the character, but I think friends and family denied it. A few months ago I saw a clip from an interview with the actor who played one of the mobsters, the black guy, and he said that the whole thing about Ledger being depressed due to playing a dark character was a myth, he said that Ledger was very happy during filming. He was also doing a completely different movie (after this one) when he died, that he sadly didn't get to finish. So it seems that rumour about his depression and suicid3 was just speculation that became popular simply because it added interest to his performance.b

Why he turned everyone on Coleman Reese, it added to the chaos and he really didn't want to know who Batman was, he know he wouldn't unmask, he just wanted more chaos, 'for them to eat each other'. He know once Rachel was gone, he was hoping it would push Batman over the edge, remove his heroic shroud. That's why he switched addresses, he wanted Harvey and Batman to lose it (the two heroes), but only Harvey did.

    Heath ledger did his own makeup for Joker, and even when he wasn't filming his scenes ledger would still show up in full costume and character and help his costars with their lines. Also the 1st time Rachel's and Alfred's characters saw ledger as Joker was filming the party scene and said that ledger as Joker scared them both

      Heath Ledger grabbing Maggie Gyllenhaal and getting really threatening with her at the party, that was all very spontaneously improvised on the spot without prior planning or any warning. And yes, Ms. Gyllenhaal did find it quite genuinely frightening.

    Shotguns have a lot more range than depicted in a lot of pop culture. That's an easy hit at that range in the beginning. Remember, if it's 00 buck(very commom), it's nine .33 caliber pellets. Slightly smaller than a 9mm each. So even if only one or two connect, it's still lethal asf.

      Also, the guys that choreographed it had made up this style. It’s a style that allows him to always be making a counter punch so as he punches down, he uses his elbow to come back up with another hit constantly hitting one after another… There is some video behind the scenes of them working on it.😅

    This movie is in my top 10 favorites of all time.
    Bruce's penthouse is the ground-level lobby of a hotel in Chicago; there's green screens outside of all the windows so they could put the Chicago skyline in later.
    The interrogation scene is the first scene Christian and Heath did together, Christian couldn't stop laughing in between takes because he was in awe of what Heath was doing. Also, both of them being method actors, Heath told Christian "I don't want to fake this, just hit me as hard as you can."
    95% of the movie is Chicago, but the interior of the Gotham Police Dept is a building in London! Nolan always shoots there.
    This movie was an EXPERIENCE in theaters, let me tell you.

    36:38 Joker doesn’t know Batman is Bruce. Joker says, “i thought you really were Dent.

    Even just the semi truck flip was insane. To get permission from the city to do it, Nolan had to prove he could do it in a parking lot on the first try. Because those are real buildings on either side of it (banks, actually). Then he had to hit the mark exactly, because activating the piston at the wrong spot could rupture a sewer line or damage an underground vault (again, banks). Finally they even had a stunt driver inside the whole time. All that just for this one scene.

Unfortunately, he was overworked. And accidentally overdose on medication and sleeping pills. So he wasn’t depressed the role of the joker. Didn’t mess up his mind. people need to know the truth.
