Was Mrs. Bundy an old school lesbian?
And don't get upset you know she is.
shareProbably a widow, judging from her age and her "Mrs" title.

You negatory little kiddies try to take the fun out of orgasms.
But thank god you don't know how.
I thought her acting in this was of the highest order
Even larks and katydids are, supposed by some, to dream
Like a pre Rosie O'Donnell but not big footish? Yup yup you right
shareMs. Bundy (no Ms. back then!) looked, dressed and talked exactly like a neighbor we had as kids. She was a retired school teacher, never married. She scared us (avoided her side of the street). So she was old school! Was she lesbian? Probably!
Ephemeron.
No just old.
shareI hope so. She was the highlight of this film, for me.
Just stellar.
I wouldn't say THE highlight but is a highlight.
You know if you get one chance to be in am movie with a bunch of other people, and something bizarre like a million birds, do something to make your character stand out. She did!
You know you can see and hear her right now and probably haven't seen that clip in awhile.
Ephemeron.
Absolutely. And you know that when she went bird-watching, she really, really enjoyed it.
I want the doctor to take your picture so I can look at you from inside as well.
Bird watchers get an unfair rap. Ms. Bundy knew about birds, but I suspect she had few other areas of expertise. I'm reminded of Miss Jane Hathaway who was a bird watcher on the Beverly Hillbillies. Although Miss Jane was a least trying to get Jethro into the woods with her on one of her expeditions.
shareBodega Bay is a big bird-watching destination, did you know?
Birders don't tend to dress fashionably while out bothering the wildlife, that part of the bad rap is fair. Good boots, floppy cloth hat (berets won't do BTW), baggy clothes with dozens of pockets for camera equipment or your reference library. I'm a sharp dresser in town, as are many birders, but a birder needs to be able to slog through woods and marshes without being slowed down by their clothes.
“Seventy-seven courses and a regicide, never a wedding like it!
Ms. Bundy's other areas of expertise;
She makes the perfect dry martini.
She can start a perfect fireplace fire in minutes.
She can tell just by the sound when the carburetor needs adjusting.
She doesn't touch the carburetor though, she knows who to take it to.
She hardly ever misses when skeet shooting.
She can describe any character from any Agatha Christie novel and has always figured out the ending before hand.
She makes a mean deviled egg.
She mentally grades letters when she reads them.
She detests lists like this.
