So if they don't have an English language obituary they're not to be posted?

And is everyone to follow that rule, or just me? I was only following the precedent.

Sad news, especially as I watched Amour just the other day. Didn't know she had cancer.

DDP pick and possibly on DJL's list.

She was. I'll bring it forward again later.

 

Wonderful actress. Very sad to lose her and Sir John Hurt at the sam e time. Sadly, she won't receive one tenth of Sir John's media coverage even though they are both arguably of similar stature as thespians.

 

That said, it isn't even mentioned on France 24 yet and Hurt is! Michele Morgan's death, by contrast, received an enormous amount of coverage over there.

Update on my pick Mao Kobayashi:

 

https://www.japantoday.com/category/entertainment/view/tv-presenter-mao-kobayashi-battling-cancer-discharged-from-hospital

 

It's a bit difficult to know how she's doing. I relied on Google Translate to tell me that her cancer has spread to the bones. Anyway, this article says she's discharged from hospital. But the comments explain that it's only because she finished a course of radiation treatment. Japanese media are still reporting that she's fighting cancer, and that the cancer is also in her lungs. It's even unclear whether she went home because either she gained quite a bit of time, or because they cannot do anything for her anymore.
