French actress Marie Trintignant has died from massive head injuries after an alleged beating by her boyfriend. Trintignant's lawyer Georges Kiejman says the 41-year-old passed away Friday at the Hartmann Clinic in Neuilly-Sur-Seine, an eastern suburb of Paris, after being flown back France from Lithuania in a coma. Trintignant had been filming a TV movie with her director mother Nadine Trintignant. She had been in a coma since last Sunday, July 27, after an alleged altercation with rocker boyfriend Bertrand Cantat, 39, left them both in hospital. Cantat - who sings in popular French band Noir Desir - is in detention for two weeks while Lithuanian cops investigate the incident, and is now a prime suspect in the murder investigation, after being detained on "suspicion of causing bodily injury". Trintignant, a mother of four, was flown back to France from Vilnius at the request of her family.
