Film Deaths[]
- Bataan (1943) [Seaman Leonard Purckett]: Shot in the back by Japanese soldiers. (Thanks to Harry)
- Strangers on a Train (1951) [Bruno Anthony]: Fatally injured when a carnival merry-go-round goes out of control and crashes; he dies shortly afterwards, while Farley Granger tries to make Robert confess to killing Kasey Rogers.
- Vengeance Valley (1951) [Lee Strobie]: Shot in the chest by Burt Lancaster when Robert draws his gun while standing in a shallow pond. We only see Robert's back during the shooting.
