How did Heath Ledger prepare for roles?
It was always about immersion, really. Not just reading lines, but living with the character. For 'Brokeback Mountain,' it was about understanding the vastness of that landscape and how it mirrored Ennis’s inner solitude. I kept a diary, not for the public, but for myself, to really inhabit his world, his silence. It was about collecting those visceral sensations, the textures of their lives. The feeling of it... that’s what you're chasing.
