Captains and the Kings (1976) [Elizabeth Healey Hennessey]: Dies (off-screen) of unspecified natural causes. She is shown lying on her deathbed while Harvey Jason visits her; he leaves after she falls asleep, and shortly afterwards he gets a phone call informing him that she died later that day.
Hamlet (2000) [Queen Gertrude]: Poisoned when she drinks from a cup that Jamey Sheridan had intended for Campbell Scott. (I haven't seen this version, but we're all familiar with the story...)
Dogville (2003) [Mrs. Henson]: Machine-gunned (off-screen) by James Caan's thugs, after they force her to watch as they kill her children. (Thanks to Vincent, Artur, and Dick Hertz) |
