Apes On Set: Filming Cornelius And Zira (1977) Part 5

A few more behind-the-scenes shots from our seventies Apes fan project. As stated before, some pics are taken from fifth-generation sources, hence the poor quality. Jackie Lawrence as Zira, David Barclay as Cornelius, Gary Cook as Milo, Ernest Morris as Zaius and Frank Seymour as Aboro.

Gary (Milo): a quick fag break between takes

Jackie Lawrence as Zira in the makeup lab. The "Yoda" statuette on the shelf behind Jackie dates this picture as post-1979, which means this must have been taken after Cornelius And Zira was completed, possibly during the creation of the 1980 pick-up shots.
