I appreciate the outpour of support if it is my FINAL film days. But I meant the actors not me. Lol But much love to all of you for caring.

      +1 for Imaginarium. Love that movie.

      Ledger died in the middle of filming. He was the lead. The director and a few of Ledger’s friends cooked up a crazy way to salvage it.

        Given the “dream world” premise and what scenes in the regular world were complete, it wound up working in their favor. Also a real sucker for Terry Gilliam’s madness.

      The Shootist is the movie that convinced me John Wayne was an actual actor in a career filled with movies where he just played John Wayne.
