Film Deaths

• Scarface (1983) [Omar Suarez]: Hanged when Paul Shenar's thugs drop him from a helicopter, while Al Pacino watches through binoculars. (Thanks to Robert and Tal)

• Amadeus (1984) [Antonio Salieri]: His death is not mentioned in the dialogue, but he dies of old age two years after the sugar roll scene that followed an overnight talk with Richard Frank.

• The Name of the Rose (1986) [Bernardo Gui]: Impaled on a hay thresher after angry villagers push his carriage over an embankment. (Thanks to Steve)

(In an alternate scene, he fled in an escape pod towards the rings of the Ba'ku planet, where the intensity of the rings' rejuvenating properties caused him to "de-age" until he disappeared completely).
