I just saw this over at the IMDB:
British Actress Cartlidge Dies Suddenly
No Man's Land star Katrin Cartlidge has died suddenly at the age of 41. The British actress, who played a TV reporter in the Oscar-winning Bosnian movie about life on the frontline during the Balkan conflict, is believed to have died of complications resulting from pneumonia and blood poisoning. Cartlidge was a regular collaborator with UK director Mike Leigh, and appeared in several films following a stint in TV soap Brookside. She starred in From Hell, Topsy-turvy, Before The Rain, Career Girls, Naked and Breaking The Waves.
Very sad news. :frowning:

Man, that's a bit of a shock.

Too bad. I liked her on a consistent basis, but she was certainly outstanding in No Man's Land.

On a somewhat off-topic note, Cartlidge's role in No Man's Land seemed almost to be a reprise of her role in Before the Rain. Interesting, no?

Anyway, she'll be missed.

Dang. She was fantastic in Breaking the Waves. When the end credit rolled with images of each actor popped up, I felt like standing up and applaud, especially for her and Emily Watson.

I guess I'm a little late but I just found this out. I've always been familiar with her work, in particular, Claire Dolan. If you haven't seen it, it's definitely worth a viewing.

I was sad at the original news. Bumping the thread reminded me of her passing, as well as the fact she wasn't listed in the Oscar broadcast's retrospective on those who had died.

I was disappointed by Cartlidge's exclusion as well. Hard to believe they overlooked her as she wasn't that obscure a talent. :frowning:
