Culture Lust Is Back
A lot has happened while Culture Lust was in the shop.
Everyone continues to be shocked by the tragic death of 28-year-old actor Heath Ledger. His passing has movie critics citing the deaths of James Dean, River Phoenix and even Marilyn Monroe as comparable stars who died as their careers were beginning to peak.
I thought Ledger was making good career choices and am saddened that his life and work is cut short. Brokeback Mountain had its problems and pleasures – one of the latter is the scene where Ennis discovers his and Jack’s shirts entwined in the back of Jack’s closet. Ledger’s performance there broke my heart.
