Tuesday evening’s screening of August was marred during the post-show Q&A when anI-can-only-assume-journalist sitting behind me decided to use the secondquestion to ask star Josh Read the full post.

Heath’s passing has disturbed me as well. You know who else I feel bad for. Brad Renfro WHO? An even YOUNGER gifted actor, 25, with a daughter who will never know him. Tragedy aside, what a jip that your untimely death, if you plan to go out in a blaze like that, is over-shadowed a few days later by a BIGGER young star’s death. Renfro got shafted in the suckiest way and means possible.
Don’t do drugs.
To all those that complain about the sensationalism in Heath Ledger’s death aren’t you the very same gossip hags that are reading these columns and watching these videos and snatching up the US and the People magazines? You can’t have your cake and eat it too – much like celebrities can not. They can’t ask for $20 mil a picture and then try to live in a world of solitude. They must understand – Hollywood doesn’t really give a crap about your talent -they care about your appeal to mass audiences. And as such the mass population is largely the same. And we can’t suck ourselves into the 98 straight hours of celeb-reality television and the TMZ’s — and then demand them to shut off the valve when actors die. He was a private man and had a family and loved ones — but he also had a tremendous following and many fans that felt a true connection with him — something he or his family probably never realized. Heath obviously probably never truly realized himself. Hope he is basking now
