No, none of the Film channels on Foxtel have ads during the film screening, only in between each film(world movies doesn’t have commercials as such just promos for other films, unlike showtime and movie network who have advertisers such as Toyota and Stella Atois).

I doubt they’re doing it to cash-in as Movie One doesn’t play ads (last time I checked anyway). I’m sure the Foxtel subscription fees already cover it.

Besides, I think it’s in the general public interest for Movie One to air Heath’s most prominent movies as a way to pay tribute to him.

I have to say it: is this a heart-felt "tribute" or a cheap way for the network to cash-in on his death?

I'd hate to think it was the latter.

Then again, even broadcast networks do the same once someone dies.

Hey David, just thought I’d point out that you listed the Movie One schedule as “February 23″.

On topic though, I was shocked when I learned of his death. Such a waste of such a promising young actor. RIP Heath.

The first movie I saw Heath in was The Patriot – and I was fascinated by his performance. He was a standout and I couldn’t believe he was a local Perth boy. I feel sad that media today focus on the person and their private life rather than the great work they do. Would have been wonderful to watch his career further blossom. Thanks for making this site a respectful environment for the industry.
