I recently saw "Four Feathers".. something moved me in a strange way .. I saw "Cassanova", "BBM" in the past, but this time it triggered something .. something ineffable .. I'm upset for two days: I ate only once, I slept quite a bit .. I constantly read articles, I have seen pictures, clips.. All about Heath ..
Feeling that came over me is beyond emotion and crying .. I've never lived this .. very few beliefs, hopes, interests which I had about life, about the reality we live in, even about God, seems to have collapsed ..
I want to cry, but I can't .. I would like to shout, but who? .. I would like to go, but where?..
If an angel has visited us, why it was so brief visit? .. he wanted to tell us? we understand the message? especially, we recognized him?!..
Although, he was a man like us, with joys, anxieties, he was above us, by what he thought, felt, said and done, despite their age.. his play in film has charmed us, his smile had seduced us, his eyes showed us the truth in his heart.. whether and how/when he left, were more than dramatic, indescribable.. undoubtedly, he showed us, in many ways, an almost frightening truth and beauty..
We can call him anyway: old soul in young body, angel, embodied honor.. I will simply say: Heath.. if I still believe in something, now that's because Heath..
Brokenhearted, I will try to understand something of what he wanted to convey by what he gave us and I hope to meet him soon, even if I went a little over age where he probably had to go.. if here he made me feel so happy, "out there" certainly will be more wonderful than that..
Here, now, even if the world is empty without him, our journey continues stubbornly, even if it has no charm and no fun..
Thank you for all Heath and... see you soon!

Waw... very moving tribute... I guess we feel approximately the same in our own way... I think Heath has managed to touch every one of us in a particular role... for it is mainly in FOUR FEATHER, and I think it is very representative of his talent that he has managed to be such different characters and to gather so many different people who are now fans of him, fans of his work...

You described him well, Adrian. Very moving tribute.
I do hope, however, that by seeing him soon, you mean after you've lived a long life and nature takes its course.

Tanks!.. for Heath neither tribute is not too great.. in fact, beyond words,
more important are the feelings that he let our souls..
As for me, accidentally or not, I discovered Heath's life story and what it
meant as an artist and as a man in a complicated time in my life .. Just as Heath was, as I am discreet and I will not go into details, however it's
important only for me .. I can say is that now I receive a gift too and I no longer afraid of anything: no sickness, no pain, no death, on the contrary .. if a wonderful man like him, so charismatic, thinking so deep and with a big heart, he had to go into another world, then surely our world is much lower than that in which he went.. So, I'm eager to discover that world, including and especially Heath .. sure, it's hard work to understand and accept it, because we all want to live here for long, we don't knows another world .. in fact, love and all our feelings are so complex and hard to explain ..
In addition, lovely as a user motto says, "sometimes, when one person is
missing, the whole world seems depopulated"... Another world said that a
man sanctifies the place .. So, a place, no matter how beautiful, remain
barren if a great soul man animates not there..
Like you, for me is very hard to reconcile with Heath's passing, I've thought a lot about all sorts of things .. For example, I likened the departure and Heat silence three years now with the silence of the sky, flowers, earth - they do not speak but tell us many...
I congratulate you all, especially Phyllis, for what you do here for Heath .. actually, honored on Heat, we help ourselves .. Thanks to him, we can
discover unsuspected sensitivity, even if it makes us vulnerable in a world as imperfect as ours ..

I understand, and feel exactly the same way about Heath. . . . and about the impact Heath left here on earth.

Welcome to HH, Adrian!
You're definitely not alone in your feelings. If you ever need someone to talk to who understands - we're here!

Thanks! I am convinced that all people here are warm, sensitive, generous, just as it was Heath ..
However, I do not want to customize too much what I say .. what I wanted to emphasize was the most unusual experience I had learning about Heath and what he meant as a man and artist, but also about Heath's passing so dramatic ..
Well as his father said, Heath has greatly influenced many people in many, diverse ways, in everything he did in the movies, by what he thought and said in various occasions and, of course, with his charisma so special ..
In other words, the existence of Heath was a celebration of life and joy of living, but also a profound analysis of its less desirable parts: war, death .. Unfortunately, with the latter he had to face much too soon and accidentally .. Sometimes, you know this thing before, it becomes imminent and you are forced to deal with it .. In this regard, Heath helped me the most .. That was what I tried to say in fact, as subtle as possible ..
But, beyond particular situations, we all need and deserve to continue to pay tribute to Heath and we always remember him as he was: talented, cheerful, deeply, charismatic, brave ..

It's really awesome how we're all gathered with the same thoughts and respect we have for him... I think we all fell in love with his talent (of course) but also with his personality (or the very little details we know about it, for he didn't like to share his privacy)...

In truth, what is fascinating in Heath, is not just talent, or just his personality, or just his charisma; he had them all, which is very rare. In terms of his personality, even if we don't know too many details about his privacy, we can learn a lot about his way of being especially from his interviews.
For example, one of his confessions, which I like very much and in which is reflected his wonderful personality is that: "Honesty always gets my attention. Not particularly someone who is honest to me, but someone who is honest with themselves. That is a quality I really enjoy, admire and love."
Also, I find it enlightening that Michelle said: "I think the interesting thing about Heath, which maybe people have only really fully discovered in his death, is how vulnerable he was.
You can pick up on it in his performances, but it's easy to overlook because he was so physical and beautiful and strong and masculine. But there was always that underlying sensitivity. That's who he was."
Many of his friends saw this, but I don't know how many have really understood him and tried to protect this rare sensitivity. He was like a very beautiful flower, unique perhaps, but far too fragile and unfortunately appeared on earth and under sky wich not friendly enough with him...
