Or at least I assume she stars in, I haven't seen any of these movies but she is in the thumbnail for each.

It's great people are celebrating O'Hara's legacy. But this feels a bit icky to me? Netflix clearly bought the rights/added these movies to their catalogue because of her death, knowing more people would be looking to watch her stuff. I guess I shouldn't be surprised, a corporation doing corporation things, but I was just taken aback by how blatant it was.
What's wrong with that, though? There's demand for her work and they're providing it to us at no extra charge. It's great customer service...there's nothing icky about it.
