Early reviews for the new Batman movie are flooding in, and the praise for the film is being slightly overshadowed by the praise for Heath Ledgers portrayal of The Joker. It has been said by not one, but 5 reviewers that Heath Ledger will be nominated for an Oscar for his role. "Unlike any performance in any comic book film ever, any action film ever." / "Heath Ledger has turned in his strongest work, sadly his last work." / "Don't be surprised if you hear 'and the winner is Heath Ledger this year"
Now the company behind the film is deciding whether or not to put Ledger in the lead actor or supporting actor catagory. I am hoping supporting, because the competition will probably be less fierce. I surely hope he does win, without even seeing the film. He was a fine actor, no an amazing actor, and his early passing still has me sad. I cannot wait to see this film.
