Their son, Nick Reiner, was charged in the fatal stabbing of Rob Reiner and his wife, Michele Singer Reiner, Los Angeles County District Attorney Nathan J. Hochman confirmed two days after the couple were found dead in their California home.The deaths stunned the entertainment community and prompted widespread tributes from actors, directors and writers, including Billy Crystal, Martin Short, Larry David, Michael Douglas, Stephen King, Demi Moore, Paul McCartney and Jamie Lee Curtis.A group of performers and collaborators released a joint tribute calling Reiner a "master story teller," praising his range from mockumentary and comedy to drama and documentary and recalling his early run in which his first seven films—This Is Spinal Tap; The Sure Thing; Stand By Me; The Princess Bride; Misery; When Harry Met Sally; and A Few Good Men—marked an unmatched streak in modern American filmmaking.
