The Birds (1963)
Directed by Alfred
Hitchcock this film inspired by real events and the novella of the
same name stars Rod Taylor and Tippi Hedren. A socialite visits a
small sea side town and the town is menaced by crazed birds.
The plot of this film
is nothing special and the characters themselves do not really have
much depth or growth. Compared to any number of other Hitchcock films
of the same era this is not his best work but it is still
serviceable. As you would expect there are some nice touches from the
master director and the set pieces work well without the special
effects dating as much as you would expect.
4/5
