For changing the face of cinema history by flushing a toilet on screen and taking that final shower...

So much more, of course, but she'll always be Miss Loomis to myself and many others.

You got that right. It's been all over the radio here this morning. Jamie Lee was right by her side when she passed.

A Touch Of Evil -vs- Psycho. FITE if you must.

Wow.

best movie death is a tie between the person with glass in their neck, knife in their chest, chair slamming into knife, oven/vodka explosion in Final Destination 1, and the fire escape guy near the start of Final Destination 2.

When I heard this I thought, blimey, she was in the best film sequence ever. I was expecting this thought to wear off, but it hasn't.

Seven quid in Fopp, I believe, and I don't know if that Saul Bass exhibition is still on, but that sequence is a major part of it.

Okay, agreed on the Psycho scene. One of the most iconic and quoted scenes in film history, without a doubt. But what I wanna know is whether or not rumours of Jamie Lee being a hermaphrodite are true.

You wanna FITE? 'Psycho' vs. 'Bye Bye Birdie.'

Not for the death thing -- nobody dies in BBB -- but just for Janet flicks.
