Oscars In Memoriam 2024

This list includes the most prominent film by each person included in the 2024 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:
Jake Bloom, 1942-2023, entertainment attorney
Michael Latt, 1990-2023, marketing consultant
Erik Lomis, 1958-2023, distribution executive
Greg Morrison, ?-?, marketing executive
(can't find anything on this guy, but I think he might be in this)
