Improvisation Without Words
Heath Ledger's performance as the Joker in the movie The Dark Knight is widely regarded as one of the best portrayals of a comic book villain on the big screen. The late actor's dedication and preparation for the role were remarkable, as he fully immersed himself in the character's twisted psyche. Ledger was so in tune with the Joker's mindset that he was able to make impromptu changes to his lines and actions without missing a beat.
One memorable scene in the movie where Ledger's improvisational skills shone was during the promotion of Jim Gordon. The Joker sarcastically claps at the scene, adding an extra layer of derision and contempt to the moment. This action wasn't scripted, but rather an improvised addition from Ledger, highlighting his natural talent and ability to improvise on the spot.
