Re: Passages
"Natural causes" is used all the time when the actual cause of death is not disclosed or is otherwise unavailable to reporters but not the result of foul play or accident.Mr Sausage wrote:When someone dies of cancer, they don't say it was from natural causes...

Re: Passages
Not true, they tend to say that the person died after a long or protracted illness. My mother died of cancer, and this was how it was written in her obituary. It was also written this way for an old girl friend who died from breast cancer and for an uncle who died from colon cancer.Mr Sausage wrote:When someone dies of cancer, they don't say it was from natural causes, they say it was from cancer.

Sounds like someone at your local paper isn't a big fan of the c-word.

Come on, man, just google the phrase "death by natural causes" and be done with it. It's completely routine usage.Mr Sausage wrote:Sounds like someone at your local paper isn't a big fan of the c-word.

That's sure a funny way of saying "You're right, I don't know what I was thinking."

I suppose that only a clip from René Clair's wonderful Under The Roofs of Paris will do!

Re: Passages
Very sad news. While his Bergman films and the Tarkovsky are the giant pillars of his career, I also want to point out his great performances in Dusan Makavejev's Montenegro, Peter Greenaway's Prospero's Books and in István Szabó's Hanussen, along with his work with Liv Ullmann, particularly in the excellent framing scenes in Faithless.
