The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus is set to be released this week, making it the last film to ever be seen with the late Heath Ledger starring. The film, a visually strange romp about a travelling theater group, also starring Lily Cole, is Ledger's Tupac-esque postmortem film contribution. Even though it's been a few years since his tragic death, whenever 10 Things I Hate About You is playing on ABC Family...the wound still feels fresh. The man was truly talented, beautiful, and worthy of plenty of memorable onscreen moments.
