How come when a main character dies on a TV show or in a movie, they always croak with their eyes wide open (usually after they've delivered a goodbye soliloquy), which then requires the hero/ine to reach out and manually shut the eyelids?
Creeps me out.

It was my understanding that it made the scene more believable. When there's stress in the body, the muscles relax at death, but they don't create a movement. So, eyes wouldn't close unless the person was in the middle of a blink or had them closed to begin with.
