🔗 Share this article Homages Flow for Rob and Michele Reiner as Medical Examiner's Findings Remain Under Wraps. Over a fortnight subsequent to the heartbreaking passing of esteemed filmmaker Rob Reiner and his wife, photographer Michele Reiner, the entertainment community are still paying respects to the couple. A Heartfelt Farewell: Cary Elwes Pays Tribute to His Director Sharing on Instagram, actor Cary Elwes, who was featured in Reiner's beloved 1987 film *The Princess Bride*, mentioned he just recently felt prepared to post publicly about his profound loss. "Sufficient time has gone by that I can finally express my sorrow into words," posted Elwes, noting that his initial encounter with Reiner left him smitten. "As we began passing more hours together I realized this was someone I desired in my life." The actor posted archival material from the production, adding that he doesn't recollect "any day without mirth". "The film is about affection, allegiance and giving. Principles that Rob cherished deeply. Which is among the many reasons he was the ideal person to direct it," Elwes wrote. He went on to praise Michele Reiner, noting: "Asserting that they were a incredible duo would be an understatement. My heart still hurts every time I remember you." He ended with a quote from *The Princess Bride*: "Indeed, death cannot stop true love but living is anguish without you." Martin Scorsese Remembers a Fellow Artist In a different essay, revered director Martin Scorsese also honored Reiner, whom he originally knew in the 1970s. "Right away, I loved spending time with Rob. We had a innate rapport for each other. He was uproarious and sometimes sharply witty, but he was never the kind of guy who would take over the room," Scorsese shared. Scorsese mentioned Reiner's acting part in his 2013 film *The Wolf of Wall Street*, embodying the father of the protagonist. "He could improvise with the best. He was a virtuoso at comedy, he worked seamlessly with everyone, and he grasped the human predicament of his character," Scorsese added. Judicial Actions: Autopsy Reports Withheld In a new development, a Los Angeles court official ruled to block the disclosure of the Reiners' medical examiner's reports, after an appeal from the LAPD. A court order placed a embargo on the cases to limit the public release of "any investigative information, evidence and photographs" pertaining to the active case. The relevant authority had already determined their deaths were the outcome of foul play, with a record noting the cause as "wounds from an edged weapon". Fallout and Commentary After the deaths, public figures shared varying responses. Former President Donald Trump wrote on the matter, offering controversial remarks that were broadly criticized by several commentators. Podcaster Joe Rogan lent his criticism to the critics last week. Speaking on his podcast, Rogan labeled the statements as "disturbing" and implied they showed a troubling lack of empathy. Rogan ended by suggesting that an aide should have intervened when the choice to comment on the passing was made.
