Late
Hollywood
actor
Heath
Ledger's
father
Kim
broke
down
in
tears
at
GQ
Men
of
the
Year
Awards
as
he
accepted
the
best
actor
prize
for
his
late
son.
The
father
of
10
Things
I
Hate
About
You
actor
was
extremely
emotional
as
his
late
son
was
honored
for
his
'Joker'
role
in
The
Dark
Knight.
The
Perth-based
businessman
was
reduced
to
tears
as
he
uttered
his
pride
in
his
"beautiful
boy",
accepting
the
award
on
behalf
of
his
little
one
Matilda
and
our
family.
"He
thrived
everyday
on
set,
humoured
and
sometimes
intimidated
the
cast,
but
revelled
in
this
opportunity
to
create
and
deliver
a
unique
character
...
and
that
he
did," The
Daily
Telegraph
quoted
Kim
Ledger,
as
saying.
Kim
Ledger
brought
to
light
the
fact
that
Heath
counted
The
Joker
role
as
his
"best
yet."
Hugh
Jackman
won
the
title
of
People's
Choice
Man
Of
The
Year
and
Baz
Luhrmann
won
a
nod
as
Creative
Force
Of
The
Year
at
the
star-studded
event.
