Heath Ledger

Brokeback got us good, don’t it? 

Dearest followers, for my university degree I have to do an internship. I love spending time in nature a lot and it’s kind of a dream to do an internship at a National Park in North America. I’ve been searching the web and have found some information on it, and will continue to do so, but I thought I’d put it out here too!

So if any of you know a certain person or institution I can contact that offers internships in/at a national park, centered around being in nature or conservation/cultural resources, etc. Please shoot me a message!

And please share!

‘He was magic’: Heath Ledger honoured at G'Day USA gala in Los Angeles

The 10th anniversary of the death of Australian actor Heath Ledger has been marked in Los Angeles with an award recognising his outstanding body of work and a stunning film career cut tragically short.

The latest award, which was handed out at the annual G'Day USA black tie gala, was accepted on his behalf  ‎by his father, Kim Ledger, and his sister, Kate.

 Actor Colin Farrell, who presented the Ledger award to the late actor’s family, described his friend as a rare individual.

“He was magic, all the good things you’ve heard about him over the years, it’s all true,” Farrell said.

 "You could not spend an hour or two in his company and not feel better about life in general.“

Farrell said Ledger’s work as an actor, across his life, got "better and better, and deeper and richer and more nuanced.”

“The work he has left behind is an incredible thing.”

Ledger’s father Kim said he accepted the award on behalf of his granddaughter - Heath’s daughter with actress Michelle Williams - Matilda.

 "Heath wholeheartedly embraced the United States and in particular LA which became his home away from home,“ Kim Ledger said.

Exactly 10 years after the death of Heath Ledger, his friend and former co-star Jake Gyllenhaal still can’t put in to words what his relationship with the late star meant to him.

“Friendship can’t be explained in a sound bite or can it in three-minute interview and those who can do it I find sort of odd. I happen to not be one of those people.”

“I think Heath meant a lot to a lot of people, the people who were fans and the people who saw his work and were moved by his work and the people who knew him as a person.
