Film Deaths[]
- Hamlet (1996) [Ophelia]: Drowned (off-screen) in a river. We first learn of this when Julie Christie informs Michael Maloney and Derek Jacobi of her demise. Her body is shown in the water afterwards, and again during her funeral.
- Quills (2000) [Madeleine LeClerc]: Stabbed in the chest (off-screen) with scissors by Stephen Marcus in the asylum; her body is shown afterwards when Joaquin Phoenix and Billie Whitelaw discover her in a laundry vat. Later on, her body is shown again when Joaquin visits her in the morgue; this scene is revealed to be a dream sequence when Kate suddenly comes back to life and begins making love with him, only to turn back into a corpse right before Joaquin wakes up. (Nudity alert: Topless)
- Finding Neverland (2004) [Sylvia Llewelyn Davies]: Dies (off-screen) of a lung illness; her body is not shown, but there is a scene of her funeral.
- The Reader (2008) [Hanna Schmitz]: Commits suicide (off-screen) by hanging herself; we learn of her death afterwards when Ralph Fiennes gets the news. (The US DVD includes a deleted scene in which Ralph views her body in the morgue. At that point in the story, she is made up to look much older than she actually was at the time.)
- Revolutionary Road (2008) [April Wheeler]: Bleeds to death after performing a botched abortion on herself.
- Contagion (2011) [Dr. Erin Mears]: Dies (off-screen) of the MEV-1 virus. Her body is shown afterwards wrapped in plastic about to be buried in a mass grave.
- Labor Day (2013) [Adele]: Shot in the head (along with Josh Brolin) by police, in a brief cutaway daydream scene when Gattlin Griffith imagines what might happen if they try to escape to Canada. (Kate and Josh survive the movie in reality.)
- The Divergent Series: Insurgent (2015) [Jeanine Matthews]: Shot in the head (off-screen) by Naomi Watts after they briefly converse with one another before cutting to the end credits.
