Janet Leigh died in 2004, but her daughter, fellow actress Jamie Lee Curtis, is still proud of her late mother.
Variety magazine features a photo of Leigh from the iconic shower scene in the 1960 film “Psycho” on the cover of an issue highlighting “The 100 Greatest Movies of All Time.”
Curtis announced it on her verified Instagram account.
“I woke up this morning missing my mother and wishing she could see my beautiful family and that her two daughters are well and thriving, and for her to enjoy this magical, creative year I’m having, after such a long time in the same industry she loved,” the “Halloween” star wrote.
“The wonder of movies is that they last forever, in perpetuity,” the caption continued. “How thrilling to see her legacy today as the number one movie of all time through the loving portal of @variety.”
Alfred Hitchcock directed “Psycho,” which also starred Anthony Perkins. The shower scene was praised for being extremely innovative at the time, and it has since been recreated, spoofed, and praised in other projects.
