Heath Ledger was and is an artist who was graceful, elegant, sincere, and profoundly talented and wise beyond his years. I'm not one to "post" tributes -- because I believe this is something sacred only to those we are closest to and I did not have the privilege to know or work with Heath Ledger.
Most of you who'll read this are like me -- we're part of a lost world. A misguided generation caught in the middle of politics, hypocrisy, misdirection and misrepresentation. Some things we have no control of. We are mere "pawns" in the game. But sometimes things occur on tiny levels and we do have control over them. I believe it's important to take note of such things -- because they often point to the larger problems that we cannot fix.
Today such a thing was brought to my attention: An absolutely STUPID -- DISTASTEFUL -- DISGUSTING waste of time "SPOOF" video on YOU TUBE that "re-inacts" the very significant death of a very special human being.
I watched for less than 10 seconds and really couldn't allow myself to see anymore. As an artist and filmmaker
who has RESPECT for other artists around the world -- it's important to me that this video is taken the FUCK OFF OF YOU TUBE. This video is not "ART" and it's not funny. It's bullshit and whether 1 person views it or 500 thousand see it -- it has to go. Whether you're a fan of Heath Ledger or not is irrelevant. Regardless of your religion, your enthnicity, your whatever -- many of you have beliefs and morals -- and at the core I hope you are with me on this.
If so, copy/paste this link, join youtube and below the video you can check FLAG this as inappropriate.
It'll take 5 minutes of your time.
Yours, the CDJ.
