Wish there was a way to turn back the clock Heath...and stop this from happening... One of the most talented and promising actors... so many images left unseen, so many emotions left to portray. And on top of it all, you seemed to be a genuine, nice and real person..
Like I said: wish I could turn back the clock and stop this from being true... Heath, you were unquestionably, steadily on my top 5: the chart where I place actors who win my heart - talent is the most splendorous thing... All the movies you won't make, the maturing you won't undergo... I wish I could still watch you when we were both in our 60's... Wish there was a way.
For some reason, ever since I heard the shocking news, Gustavo Santaolalla's "The Wings" from Brokeback's soundtrack is playing in my head and won't stop... Probably because it's so sad, and so beautiful, and reminds me of you...
Rest in peace, Heath.
This is just me,saying goodbye...
Always up there with the greats for me Heath...
Love always,
Daniela.
