Cave

[ithildin]

You know how sometimes you have moments where you feel like you must be living in a cave or some remote foreign local? That's what it's been like since yesterday when Heath Ledger died. It's the topic on my f'list and on many of my email lists. I had absolutely no idea he was so popular. I'd heard of him, knew he was an actor, but that was about it. I checked IMDB to see if I'd ever seen any of his movies, but I hadn't. I've come across one other person who hadn't seen him before either. We must be sharing cave space.

It's very sad for his family, and I feel for his fans who are taking his death as such a blow.

Errr... okay, how about putting it this way: she co starred on one of the top rated TV shows in the seventies for something like seven years [g] And she was one of those actresses that worked constantly. She did dozens of movies from the fifties on, and dozens of guest star appearances on other TV shows. According to IMDB, she was supposed to play Cat Woman in the Batwoman series, but negotiations fell through and they gave the role to Julie Newmar.

I didn't think it would help you know who she was, more like I was trying to give an idea of how well known she was since you wouldn't know who she was. It made sense at the time :)
