A homosexual cowboy in the movie Brokeback Mountain (2005), 27-year old Heath Ledger and his partner Michelle Williams, have bought a Hollywood house worth 2,3 million dollars US. It was Ellen DeGeneres’ house, the host of the american show The Ellen DeGeneres Show.
The couple bought the house to be free of paparazzi. The house is gated and walled-in. But that might not be enough to keep photographers at bay. Actor Will Ferrell rents a place in the area and stars Kirsten Dunst and Matthew McConaughey also live nearby.
Heath Ledger will play the role of Bob Dylan in the drama I’m Not There (2006), which was shot in Montreal, Canada. Seven actors play the different facets of the personal and professional life of the singer, who has inspired groups such as The Beatles and the White Stripes.
