I remember the first time I watched ‘The Birds’ with my roommate. After it was over, she said she wasn’t impressed. Then, less than an hour later she comes over to me and asks me why the birds went nuts and attacked the people. I just smiled and told her that that was what made it scary, they never tell you so it could easily happen again. It drove her crazy for a few weeks.
I also got to meet Tippi Hedren at Dragon*Con a few years ago. She was very sweet and lovely.
I like that story! Personally I think Hitchcock is incredible! He knows how to keep me ‘on the edge of my seat’ without getting graphic or gory.
And, I’m so glad to hear that Tippi Hedren was nice. Just wondering, what was she promoting at Dragon Con???
