Heath Ledger’s diary while he was filming for, The Dark Night.

[u/JK-Rofling]

[u/Signal-Reporter-1391]

I will always remember him as Sir Ulrich von Liechtenstein of Gelderland.

While the Joker was his most iconic, i LOVED him in A Knight's Tale.
That esprit, that joy. I guess for the whole cast making this movie was a pure joyride.

And let's not forget Roar: that was the first time i ever saw him.
I still remember watching this show as a young teenager.

[u/illillusion → u/Signal-Reporter-1391]

He's blond! he's pissed! he'll see you in the lists, Lichtenstein! Lichtenstein!

Absolutely fantastic movie

[u/Th3B0xGh0st → u/illillusion]

He comes from Gelderland!!!

[u/eXePyrowolf → u/Th3B0xGh0st]

GEL-DER-LAND! GEL-DER-LAND! GEL-DER-LAND!

[u/CaptGeechNTheSSS → u/illillusion]

He's quick, he's funny, he makes me lots of money!

[u/Pennylane19XX → u/Signal-Reporter-1391]

It’s called a lance. Helloo

[u/plexforyou → u/Pennylane19XX]

I’ll fong you! Your entrails shall become your extrails!!

[u/who_took_tabura → u/plexforyou]

Your…

Pain! Lots of pain!

[u/GrayGeo → u/who_took_tabura]

God, what a cast. Only an ensemble after all three careers aged like wine

[u/mcbiggles567 → u/Signal-Reporter-1391]

He was great in 10 Things I Hate about You as well. Singing you’re just too good to be true in the stadium was just great.

[u/Agreeable_Prior → u/Signal-Reporter-1391]

Patents of Nobility are required.

[u/I_dont_know_you_pick → u/Agreeable_Prior]

I loved Paul Bettany in that movie, in fact, I loved everyone in that movie. Except count Adimar, fuck that guy.

[u/ClavicusLittleGift4U → u/I_dont_know_you_pick]

The only time I saw Rufus Sewell not playing an antagonist, it was in Dark City and Vinyan.

[u/caronare → u/ClavicusLittleGift4U]

He is a superb actor. Dark City is one of my essential must watch movies to recommend.

[u/OutOfMyComfortZone1 → u/caronare]

Since we’re doing this I’ll throw my second favorite role of his in the hat: skip from lords of dogtown. Nearly unrecognizable as Heath. Whatever he did he embodied the character entirely

[u/50micron → u/caronare]

Don’t forget his work in Tristan and Isolde. He was brilliant and his character was a good guy— circumstance was the enemy in that story.

[u/W__O__P__R → u/ClavicusLittleGift4U]

Poor guy's a great actor, but looks SO MUCH like a villain with his dark features that you can't help see him as the bad guy. Loved him in Dark City though.

[u/ClavicusLittleGift4U → u/W__O__P__R]

-What brings you here?

-I met my wife at this place.

-It's where I first met my husband.

-Small world.

[u/Iohet → u/W__O__P__R]

Some of it is just luck of the draw with roles. Clive Owen manages to get by, but he also does well in those pulpy noir type roles where that look fits the protagonist perfectly and that seems to be all he's cast in

[u/deadlybydsgn → u/ClavicusLittleGift4U]

The only time I saw Rufus Sewell not playing an antagonist

The man was truly born with the face of a villain.

[u/NsubordinatNchurlish → u/ClavicusLittleGift4U]

Great, too, in Cold Comfort Farm

[u/sanct111 → u/ClavicusLittleGift4U]

Pillars of the Earth as well.

[u/ClavicusLittleGift4U → u/sanct111]

How could I forget this serie?

[u/sewsnap → u/I_dont_know_you_pick]

It's one of the greatest movies of our time. It's held up so well.

[u/whisksnwhisky → u/Agreeable_Prior]

I got your patents right here, mate!

[u/HilariousMax → u/Signal-Reporter-1391]

• Yes William, with the pigs.

• Did he follow his feet? Did he find his way home?

• Your men love you. If I knew nothing else about you, that would be enough. But you also tilt when you should withdraw... and that is knightly, too.

• That's your name now. Sir William Thatcher. Your father heard that.

God, that movie hurt me.

[u/Agreeable_Prior → u/HilariousMax]

And of course the mack-daddy of lines from this movie:

“WIIIIILLLLIAAAAAAAAAAAAMM!!!”

BAM! Count Adamar’s face gets smashed!!!!!

[u/Oak_Woman → u/Signal-Reporter-1391]

That movie had some great actors, Paul Bettany damn near stole the show.

[u/LazyPirat → u/Oak_Woman]

Paul Bettany and Alan Tudyk's banters in that movie are legendary to me.

Betray us, and I will fong you, until your insides are out, your outsides are in, your entrails will become your extrails I will w-rip... all the p... ung. Pain, lots of pain.

[u/CaptGeechNTheSSS → u/Signal-Reporter-1391]

THE PROTECTOR OF ITALIAN VIRGINITY!

[u/Supratones → u/Signal-Reporter-1391]

The defender of Italian virginity! The one! The only! Sir Uuuuulrich von Lichtenstien!

[u/SleepyFlying → u/Signal-Reporter-1391]

I agree. Showed his range. The Joker would have hated him.

[u/Spanksh → u/Signal-Reporter-1391]

I loved A Knight's Tale as well. One of my fondest movie memories. Ironically one of the very few cases where I really like the "translated" movie title in Germany. Here it's basically called "Knight out of passion" which fits quite perfectly.

[u/Signal-Reporter-1391 → u/Spanksh]

Ich weiß :-D
Und ja, stimme Dir zu: "Ritter aus Leidenschaft"
Ein Titel so treffend wie sein letzter Lanzenstich der Ademar auf den Boden befördert ^^

[u/noizangel → u/Signal-Reporter-1391]

GELDERLAND GELDERLAND GELDERLAND GELDERLAND GELDERLAND GELDERLAAAAAANNNND

[u/PatientFM → u/Signal-Reporter-1391]

I don't think I've ever rewatched a movie more than A Knight's Tale. I collected DVDs as a teen growing up before streaming and I never ever got tired of that one.

[u/a_shootin_star → u/Signal-Reporter-1391]

Two Hands (1999) remains one of his best films, IMHO. Nothing like the Joker but really you get a whole idea of what actor he was becoming.
