I spent the summer in Chicago as a P.A on the dark knight, and though I never spoke with him, I saw him play the anti-christ-like joker from 6pm to 6am for several weeks. But in between scenes he was very lively and generally friendly to other crew members. In between his constant chain smoking he was either doing tricks on his skateboard in the middle of the street or lying on his back at an intersection listening to music on his giant headphones. He cool enough to make an appearance at a the crew half-way-through party. Outside of his joker costume you could mistake him for a skater kid; with his long hair tucked in a bun, and long dark shorts and long socks and a mock up yellow t-shirt with the “shell gasoline” logo, manipulated to resemble a skull and instead reading, “hell.” Anyway, I just wanted to say it’s too bad, he was exceptionally talented and seemed like a very decent human being.
