RESTING PLACE

We find this a little too creepy, we wouldn't even want to visit there.

Heath Ledger's last residence in SoHo is up for sale.

The place is 4400 square feet, 3-bedrooms and balcony.

HEATH LEDGER DIRECTED ANIME

We recommend watching this with the sound off.... just saying.

UK's The Guardian stated:

A music video directed by Heath Ledger, which illuminates the late actor's passion for animal rights and his close creative relationship with director Terry Gilliam, has been released online.

The video, for King Rat, a rare single by American indie band Modest Mouse, was also left unfinished and has been completed by Gilliam and a collective of directors and artists who call themselves the Masses. The six-minute animation imagines a world in which whales are the hunters, scouring the seas for human prey.

Full of Gilliam-esque flourishes (there are even trumpets appearing from the clouds), the video started out as a collaboration between Ledger and Daniel Auber, a concept designer he met while working on another Gilliam film, 2005's The Brothers Grimm. The pair worked on the promo while Ledger was in London filming his acclaimed, Oscar-winning performance as the Joker in last year's The Dark Knight.

"We had a lot of fun making this video, but obviously it is a serious video," Auber, who was primarily responsible for the animation, told the Times today. "Heath was very interested in defending the lives of whales and dolphins ... So it was very important for him to make a video that would make an impact. We needed to have the shock factor because if it wasn't dark it wouldn't be impressive, and if it wasn't impressive nobody would think about what we are doing to wildlife in the ocean."

The video has now been made available for download through iTunes, with all proceeds in the first month going to the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society.

FIRST LOOK

A photo of the late Heath Ledger in his final film, The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus.

The film is directed by Terry Gilliam.  Johnny Depp, Colin Farrell and Jude Law all stepped in to complete the role left by Heath's void.

As I was one of the first to report, the actors donated their film salaries from this film project to baby Matilda, Ledger's daughter.

DEPP,LAW,FARRELL GIVE SALARY TO LEDGER'S DAUGHTER, MATILDA

Johnny Depp, Jude Law, and Colin Farrell were worried about Heath Ledger's daughter, Matilda not being left anything in Heath's old will.

So Hollywood DID a great thing.  

These three actors that played Heath's last role of Tim in the fantasy epic The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus have donated their pay to Ledger's two-year old daughter, according to the British media.

The film's director, Terry Gilliam quips, "They didn't take money--it goes to Heath's daughter."

Isn't that great that these 3 majors stars gave their salary to toddler Matilda--to make sure she has some type of funds at 18!!!!
