Oscars In Memoriam 2020

This list includes the most prominent film by each person included in the 2020 Oscars "In Memoriam" segment. They are ranked in alphabetical order by last name. It's obviously debatable what "most prominent" means, so I do my best by trying to pick a highly rated, popular, and/or characteristic film.

I haven't seen a lot of these films, so if you think any of these people are better reflected in another film, let me know.

People not directly related with any films:
Gerry Lewis, 1928-2020, marketing executive
