The Dark Knight premiered tonight (July 14) in New York and Heath Ledger’s family was there to see his last performance in a movie. (How surreal that must have been to see him…just like it will be surreal for us to see him.) Heath’s father left the theater showing a thumbs up.

Kim Ledger and his wife Ines – Heath’s stepmother – bypassed the red carpet and ducked into the theater to watch his late son play The Joker in the latest Batman film.

Also attending the premiere were Heath’s mother Sally Bell and her husband, and Heath’s older sister, Kate.

As his father Kim left, he was asked how it felt to attend, responding with the thumbs-up. He also told reporters it was “very good.”

I am so glad that his family got to see the movie first before the general public.
