Film Deaths:
- The Others (2001) [Mrs. Bertha Mills]: Dies of tuberculosis (off-screen) many years before the story takes place; her body is shown (along with those of Elaine Cassidy and Eric Sykes) in a vintage photograph that Nicole Kidman discovers, causing her to realize that Fionnula, Elaine and Eric are ghosts.
- Tears of the Sun (2003) [Sister Grace]: Killed (off-screen) when soldiers attack the mission; we see the aftermath of the massacre when Bruce Willis' helicopter passes overhead, though we don't see any specific characters' bodies among the carnage. (Thanks to Robert)
- Blessed (2004) [J. Lloyd Samuel]: Killed, though I don't know the details. (Thanks to Andrea)
- Four Brothers (2005) [Evelyn Mercer]: Shot to death (off-camera) by hitmen in a convenience store, making it look like a robbery. We only hear the gunfire over an exterior shot of the building (we later see the events leading up to the shooting as Mark Wahlberg and his other foster brothers watch the CCTV footage). (Thanks to Robert)
