A GOLDEN Globes winner sent a touching message to Aubrey Plaza and the heartbroken of family of Jeff Baena following his sudden death.
Famed Brutalist director Brady Corbet sent an emotional message of support to the loved ones of Baena after he took his own life on Friday aged just 47.
Plaza was scheduled to help host the annual event but didn’t appear due to the sudden death of her long-time husband.
The acting world has spent the last few days mourning the 47-year-old who had impressed Hollywood with several well-liked films.
Fellow directing ace Corbet, 36, was on stage receiving his award for Best Director with his final words honouring Baena.
He said: “Finally, tonight my heart is with Aubrey Plaza and Jeff’s family – good night.”
The cameras then panned to Brutalist leading man Adrien Brody who was holding back tears.
SUICIDE doesn’t discriminate, touching the lives of people in every corner of society – from the homeless and unemployed to builders and doctors, reality stars and footballers.
It’s the biggest killer of people under the age of 35, more deadly than cancer and car crashes.
And men are three times more likely to take their own life than women.
Yet it’s rarely spoken of, a taboo that threatens to continue its deadly rampage unless we all stop and take notice, now.
That is why The Sun launched the You’re Not Alone campaign.
The aim is that by sharing practical advice, raising awareness and breaking down the barriers people face when talking about their mental health, we can all do our bit to help save lives.
Let’s all vow to ask for help when we need it, and listen out for others… You’re Not Alone.
