The Pie and Bovril Dead Pool 2022

Berniece Baker Miracle, half sister of Marilyn Monroe - I had her in my team but had to sub her out before deadline as she did not meet the 'fame in her own right' criteria.

Just as well, as I've found out now that she died in 2014 although her Wiki page has still not been updated.

Modest points missed as one of my picks, Isreal Dresner, fails to land a UK obit - was always going to be a struggle but he had featured in a couple of UK articles fairly recently.

 

You've spelled his name wrong, search for Israel Dresner.

Jean-Jacques Beineix est mort.

I only mention him because he directed Betty Blue which gave me an appreciation of French cinema* when I was a lad...

 

 

 

*This is a euphemism for getting my cheapies in those pre-internet days.
