Naturally, it will be unsettling to see the late Heath Ledger on the big screen once again, especially in the role of a psychopath. But when he appears as The Joker in the new Batman sequel, “The Dark Knight,” it will provide an opportunity to remember what a unique and passionate talent he was. Directed with gusto and imagination by Christopher Nolan, this installment again stars Christian Bale as the Caped Crusader. This time he has to try and thwart the Joker, who has stolen all the money in town and tries to use it to unite all the criminals in an effort to eliminate Batman once and for all. Goodbye, Heath, but perhaps, hello Oscar. (Warner Brothers, opens Friday)
