Philip Seymour Hoffman (1967 - 2014)
==Film Deaths==
*My Boyfriend's Back (1993) [Chuck Bronski]: Accidentally kills himself by stabbing himself in the brain with the pick end of a fire axe he was trying to kill Andrew Lowery with. Andrew then reluctantly eats part of him (played for dark comedy).
*The Getaway (1994) [Frank Hansen]: Shot in the side by Michael Madsen while riding in a car with him, then pushed out of the moving car.
*The Fifteen Minute Hamlet (1995) [Bernardo/Horatio/Laertes]: As "Laertes," he is presumably slashed with a poisoned sword in a swordfight with Austin Pendleton. (I haven't seen this short film, but it's a condensed parody of the Shakespeare play.)
*The Talented Mr. Ripley (1999) [Freddie Miles]: Bludgeoned to death with a marble bust by Matt Damon in Matt's hotel room (after Philip discovers Matt impersonating Jude Law); Matt then carries his body out to the car and drives it into the sea.
*Red Dragon (2002) [Freddy Lounds]: Burned to death when Ralph Fiennes sets him on fire after a long period of torture; we see his flaming body rolling down the street in a wheelchair afterwards.
*Cold Mountain (2003) [Reverend Veasey]: Shot to death during a battle between the home guard and a group of Union soldiers, while Philip is shackled to Jude Law on the chain gang.
*Mission Impossible III (2006) [Owen Davian]: Run over by a truck when Tom Cruise places him in its path at the end of a struggle.
*Before the Devil Knows Your Dead (2007) [Andy Hanson]: Smothered with a pillow by his father (Albert Finney) at the end of a struggle in his hospital bed.
*Synecdoche, New York (2008) [Caden Cotard]: Possibly dies (off-screen) from old age. The movie ends with his sentence getting cut off by Dianne Wiest saying "die" in a voice over.
*Mary and Max (2009; animated) [Max Jerry Horowitz]: Dies of unspecified causes (possibly a heart attack due to his morbid obesity). His body is later seen when Mary (voiced by Toni Collette) enters his apartment and finds him dead on his couch.
==Television Deaths==
*Empire Falls (2005 mini-series) [C.B. Whiting/Charley Mayne]: Commits suicide by shooting himself in the head by his gazebo, several years in the past; he appears as a ghost to Ed Harris throughout the series.
