Kim Novak expresses wish to be composted after death

Hollywood icon Kim Novak, 93, has shared her unconventional funeral wishes to be composted after her passing. The actress, known for her role in Alfred Hitchcock’s ‘Vertigo’, revealed the plan during a conversation with the animal rights organization PETA.

Novak intends for the compost created from her remains to be used by her family and friends to plant trees. She expressed a desire to ‘continue living through the trees’ and noted that the process represents a form of patience she feels she has lacked in life.
