Filmmaker Jeff Baena – best known for directing films like “Life After Beth” and “The Little Hours,” and the husband of Aubrey Plaza, has died … TMZ has learned.
I knew Aubrey was married, but I couldn’t name her husband if my life depended on it. I’m sorry he was in so much pain, and I hope Aubrey is okay.
Geez… I swear to god if my obituary opens with Wife’s Name’s husband, I’d be pretty bummed.
Suicide, also. Dang.
If I were married to Plaza I’d want it mentioned every time.
Why? I’m my wife’s husband as much as I am anything else, and plenty of people refer to folks as “John’s friend” or “Erin’s husband” to identify them in context.
Also, would you have known who this was if they didn’t? Some would for sure, but a lot of people who care about his films still might not have put the pieces together without Aubrey Plaza’s name in there, so I don’t see the issue.
I don’t disagree with it being there but it wouldn’t feel great to be the leading description. “Director, filmmaker, and husband of” would emphasize his accomplishments.
Meow that I think about it, Idk why we’re debating a TMZ headline. Sorry and good day.
Fair enough, but that’s such a minor difference that I can’t imagine caring about it if I, personally, were the subject. I am definitely not calling any/everyone who feels differently ego-centric, but ego is the only reason I specifically could imagine being offended by that. Not looking to start a debate over TMZ at all haha, was just wondering if there were particular issues folks had with it that I wasn’t thinking of.
Well meow I want this autocorrect on my phone too!
im also going to go put that into my auto correct right meow
I stated how I’d feel about it. I didn’t say you should feel that way. I guess I’m fucking wrong though, forgot I was on the internet for a moment.
I was curious why you felt that way, not saying you were wrong. It was an interesting reaction to the headline, so I was looking to discuss/understand it, not debate.
It made him feel like less of a man for a minute and he had to understand how women feel when they are diminished by being called “Mrs. <husbands name>”
Uhhh I’m not sure if you’ve heard about how women have it but it’s almost always like that for women
well then, I entirely retract my statement. thank you for setting me straight.
Lol don’t be bummed your death won’t be on the news at all.
If he hadn’t been married to her, this article wouldn’t even behave been written.
Lemmys funny, they’ll bitch about reddit being a circlejerk but keep downvoting reality
Lemmy exists because some commies got mad at being censored by capitalist pig dogs and decided to make their own Reddit on FOSS principles. With less hookers, damn you Lenin, sex work is work!
Everything else is bullshit, this is Reddit out from under Spez’s thumb and nothing else.
yeah they were together for a good while also. its just awful.
Just means your wife’s more famous than you. Be proud of her.
allright dude. when I kill myself and my obituary says “actually noteworthy person’s relation, (me)” I’ll whisper how proud of them I am as I fade into the afterlife
Nah you won’t give a fuck either way because you’d be dead.
Why? Most people know who Aubrey Plaza is. Most people don’t know him. It helps anchor the headline with who it is.
RIP. Depression takes the best people from us. I wish his friends and family peace and hope that they can grieve him.

Suicide
Do you know that, or are you just speculating?
I’ve no idea who these people are and never heard of those films.
Aubrey Plaza, you must have heard of. She’s in parks and rec, Agatha all along, legion, and many other shows and movies.
I guess I don’t really pay attention to actors and actresses names and just recognize them from something else I’ve seen. I don’t think I’ve seen those two things after parks and rec
If you’re looking for a real trip, check out Legion. It’s super weird but interesting.
i was kinda disappointed in that it seemed to go nooowhere. started strong but then all plot evaporated like a fart in the wind
Just don’t do it high. Trust me.
Weird comment to leave in the “Movies and TV Shows” community.
I’m interested in Movies and TV, not actors and actresses personal lives.
Suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem
Gee thanks, I’ll be sure to tell my brain chemistry that it is just a temporary problem.
Good job making turning my comment into a personal attack on yourself.
Sorry, youre right. Im sure your trite self-centered sayings will cure suicide forever.
Yeah thats clearly what I thought was going to happen when I commented it. I couldn’t possibly just be sharing the phrase that gives me personal comfort in the hopes of it would help others. What i was really doing was attacking all suicidal people because I live a perfect life and have never experienced sadness or despair at all.
I’ve seen every cliche about suicide there is, probably a hundred times each. None of them are even slightly convincing in any way. Only people who haven’t suffered from real depression and suicidal thoughts believe these petty words have any power.
Ignorant statement, this is literally what i repeat to myself in my lowest moments.
I feel it, but it’s maybe not the best phrase to post without this context under a post about suicide
I shouldn’t have to post a short story underneath a platitude to prevent people from projecting their Aunt Karen onto me.
I’m glad it helps you, truly, but I think for most people, this is just belittling.
Made good movies. Reflects poorly on Aubrey, who is easy to crush on.
Jesus Christ. Try empathy next time
You’re disgusting
