| | Posted: June 27, 2012 6:06 PM | | | | 13 films with 13 different directors where the director also plays a person who dies in the film. Name the film, the director, and a brief description of how the character dies. The character does not need to be named or have a speaking part, but there needs to be at least a scene in the film where the director/actor can be seen. 1. Gran Torino (Clint Eastwood) shot by gang members 2. Citizen Kane (Orson Welles): dies in his bed, whispering Rosebud... 3. Spoiler: (Select to view)Easy Rider (Dennis Hopper): shot by redneck 4. Spoiler: (Select to view)Heaven Can Wait (Warren Beatty): mistakenly brought to the afterlife in a bicycle accident by his gardian angel. 5. Spoiler: (Select to view)Erik the Viking (Terry Jones): King Arnulf drown during the island sinking. 6. Spoiler: (Select to view)Braveheart (Mel Gibson): beheaded. 7. Spoiler: (Select to view)La vita è bella (Roberto Benigni): Guido die in the concentration camp attempting to free Dora. 8. Spoiler: (Select to view)The Brave (Johnny Depp): murdered for a snuff film. 9. Spoiler: (Select to view)Platoon (Oliver Stone): bunker gets destroyed 10. Spoiler: (Select to view)Hoffa (Danny de Vito): de Vito's character, Bobby Ciaro, is assassinated alongside Hoffa. Also, feel free to express your opinion on a suggestion to add a rule to prevent stalling of this thread. | | | | Last edited: June 27, 2012 6:07 PM by Wigram |
