Maybe that\u2019s how I made her laugh. I met her at a horror movie convention a decade ago &amp; showed her the Motion Picture Purgatory I did that featured her replaying her role in The Birds but instead of crows grouping together getting ready to create mischief I drew primates! I was supposed to be reviewing Tim Burton\u2019s remake of Planet of the Apes (2001) but it looked so stupid I refused to go &amp; just made up this fake review instead! She laughed while autographing the photocopy seen here &amp; looked strikingly\u00a0gorgeous even in her mid-seventies! It reads; \u201cTo Rick, Very funny!\u201d The heading for this Motion Picture Purgatory which originally appeared in a 2001 issue of The Montreal Mirror was \u201cOok!\u201d As always; the original art\u2019s for sale @ 100 bucks (but NOT this autographed photocopy!).
