A pretty good documentation of Heath Ledger's short, but powerful life. It's nice to have these insights, the documentation provides.

A refreshing look and celebration of the life of a wonderful actor rather than a cynical detective story of his untimely death. It's not a particularly deep documentary, and the lack of input from someone like Michelle Williams or Ledger's daughter is understandable but ultimately disappointing, but it sheds what may be a new light on a young man we were truly gifted to share 28 years with.

In the sea of young upcoming actors, Heath Ledger was unique. Like Patrick Swayze, I remember where I was when I heard about his passing.

Well, if you're like me and you grew up in the noughties/2000s, you knew his name and you knew the various roles he played in various films. It's also easy to say, Heath Ledger is nothing short of being a modern Australian legend who lived a wonderfully fulfilling and colourful life, but sadly left this world all too soon.

I am a huge fan of heath ledger since his early work and I am a firm believer his portrayal of the joker in the "dark knight" is the greatest performance by an actor I have seen. This film touched me in so many ways that I feel that I knew the man personally as strange as it may seem.

When you begin watching a documentary about a man's tragic loss, you are expecting a certain amount of glumness and hurt. Heath Ledger's friends and family do a spectacular job of catching this man's whole essence and lust for life, a creativity beyond anything we knew him to have, a man who was alive in every minute and who lived a lifetime in a small amount of years.

Family and friends give a loving tribute to the late famous actor. It's nice to see so much admiration.

I love his vlogs!! Love all the clips Heath shot to record lots and lots of bits of ingenious and beautiful moments in his life.

A documentary to see absolutely for the lovers of this great actor who left us too early and who still had so much to say and so much to give in the cinema and beyond.
