A controversial subject but none-the-less it has to be questioned... is death good PR? Following the highly anticipated opening weekend of the Dark Night (Heath Ledgers last movie filmed before he died) took a staggering $155 million JUST from Fri-Sun! A massive Ledger fan myself, I would have definitely gone to see this movie regardless however I can’t help but question other viewers motivations to hot-footing it to the cinema over the weekend. A mark of respect? Or just plain nosy? Either way, there’s no doubt this movie is, and will continue to smash all Box Office expectations unlike a former movie of Ledger’s which only managed to gross a measly $547, 425 in its opening weekend. So is it true? Does death = Oscar? We’ll soon find out..
