Heath Ledger has won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor at the 81 Academy Awards. many of us predicted that he would win. Ledger won for his performance as the Joker in The Dark Knight. He has become the second actor to win an Oscar posthumously, Peter Finch is the only other actor to win one for his portrayal of Howard Beale in Network. Many feel Ledger got the nomination out of pity, but I feel that he earned it for one of the best performances I've seen since the golden years of cinema. His death is a true loss to the film world, and his performances will be missed.
HAWK out.
