Did Heath Ledger Deserve His Oscar?
What did all of you think about Heath Ledger winning the Oscar this year? He won best supporting actor for his role as the Joker in Dark Knight.
Do you think he deserved it or did the academy just give it to him to avoid looking bad. What I mean is if they didn’t give it to him they would have looked like a bunch of hard hearted no feeling group of people I think.
In my opinion I think he deserved it. Mine may not count for much cause I didn’t see any of the other movies. Those nominated did do good jobs from the clips Ive seen so I’m sure they were deserving of the nomination and maybe the trophy.
I know it was hard for the academy members not to let the fact of it being Ledger’s last film before his death alter their decision but in this case he really was good in the movie and the sad fact of him dying was an unfortunate coincidence.
