Actually, Ledger has a number of funny (or maybe "funny" is a better way of putting it) scenes in TDK. The Nurse's outfit pulled right out of a 1940's costume closet? The malfunctioning detonator? The way he fucked with that chest puffing leader of the (ahem) black mob? He did a much better job being simultaneously funny, hideously likeable, AND terrifying to the bitter end than Nocholson did. In my opinion (and the opinion of... Well, pretty much everyone). Quote:
Man, that's exactly how Ledger played it and Nolan wrote it. No logic. No playing by "crime's ruless"... He burned a mountain of cash, for fuck's sake. It's all a matter of taste, but Ledger was nothing like your average Hollywood psycho, from where I was sitting. He was the bloody Joker, and he earned an academy award for his performance. That's saying something. Even if he partly won through sympathy votes.... |
