The year was 1999. Alex Mack and the dude from 3rd Rock From the Sun were in a movie together. But it was this young Aussie guy who truly stole the show.

Yep, you literally couldn't take your eyes off Heath Ledger in 10 Things I Hate About You.

He was so dreamy, with the curls and the soulful eyes and the beautiful face, uggggh.
Touchstone
His smile made you ~feel~ things.

The toothpick! The dimplesssss.
You definitely thought about him naked.
Touchstone
But he was so much more than a pretty face...
Touchstone
(And yes, that face was very pretty.)
He was totally smart...
Touchstone
Not to mention a complete smart-ass.
Touchstone
AND a badass to boot.
Touchstone
He was super mysterious, which meant it was all the more meaningful when he did open up.
Touchstone
And his tough exterior just highlighted how sweet he really was on the inside.
Touchstone
He was so thoughtful and caring...
Touchstone
And incredibly damn romantic.

When he made mistakes, he wasn't afraid to admit them and make up for it.

Remember how he bought Kat the guitar she'd been dreaming of?!
And then there was kissing. THE KISSIIIIIING!
Touchstone
It was too much.

Touchstone
(But really, never enough.)
In short, Heath Ledger as Patrick Verona was and always will be the ultimate dream guy.
