Heath Ledger’s whaling video
p2pnet news view | Movies:- Australian actor heath Ledger died in January, 2008.
He was in a lot of movies, but he’s likely to be remembered mainly for two: one in which she starred; and another which he directed.
The first was the Dark Knight.
Ledger stole the show as The Joker.
But the second is a video highlighting the devastation caused to one of the most intriguing and best-loved marine mammals.
Whales.
“Modest Mouse’s video ‘King Rat’, directed by the late Heath Ledger, debuts online,” says The Age.
“Proceeds from its sale will go to anti-whaling activists Sea Shepherd.”
Shortly after his death, “It was only a few months ago that Susan Weingartner from the Sea Shepherd board of directors and I met with Heath Ledger at his production studio in Los Angeles,” posted captain Paul Watson, adding:
“He was extremely enthusiastic about showing us the animated video he was working on about whales and whaling. It was an incredible piece.
“He was just heading off to Chicago to complete the Batman movie with another longtime Sea Shepherd supporter Christian Bale.
“Heath joined our Sea Shepherd Advisory Board in October 2007 and we agreed to meet after the Antarctic campaign to discuss future projects.”
