The Birds Review.

The Birds Review.

The Birds is a horror/thriller movie directed by Sir Alfred Hitchcock in 1963 starring Rod Taylor, Tippi Hedren and Suzanne Pleshette. 
When a wealthy San Francisco socialite decides to pursue a potential boyfriend to a small Northern California town in order to drop off a ‘gift’. Things slowly start to take a very bizarre change for the worst when all kinds of birds decide to attack/strike back at innocent civilians. Causing a lot of damage as they come back in increasing numbers proceeding to get more viscous every time.


 Perhaps the most memorable scene in the film was when Lydia finds a dead man in his room with his eyes pecked out. This scene was filmed with the '3 shot' technique. This is where each shot gets closer and closer to the action, this technique is used to emphasise a certain aspect of the frame and also captures and holds the viewers attention.
