Shock and grief after director Rob Reiner and wife Michele found dead

Figures from Hollywood and US politics have paid tribute and expressed shock after acclaimed director Rob Reiner and his wife Michele were found dead in their Los Angeles home.

Police launched a homicide investigation after saying a 78-year-old man and 68-year-old woman were pronounced dead at a house in an upmarket neighbourhood of LA on Sunday.

Reiner is known for directing classic films in a variety of genres, including When Harry Met Sally, This is Spinal Tap, Stand By Me, Misery and A Few Good Men, as well as for championing liberal causes and Democratic politics.

Spinal Tap star Christopher Guest and his wife Jamie Lee Curtis said they were "numb", while former President Barack Obama said he and wife Michelle were "heartbroken".

He also directed The Princess Bride and The American President (written by Aaron Sorkin, who later based “The West Wing" on it).
