The Birds, by Alfred Hitchcock, is a brilliant film of gripping suspense. Melanie Daniels, played by Tippi Hedren, is buying a parrot when Mitch, an extremely good-looking lawyer played by Rod Taylor, enters the shop and plays a practical joke on the young woman. To revenge herself she decides to send him a pair of love birds. She goes to his address and discovers that he is away for the weekend. So she drives to Botaga Bay where he is staying with his mother and sister. She crosses the bay in a boat and discreetly leaves the cage at the house. But as she is climbing out of the boat, a seabird violently attacks her and Mitch comes to her rescue. The following day the birds kill a man and from then on terror reigns in the village where the attacks are increasingly vicious and frequent. Mitch and Melanie barricade themselves in the house and frantically fight off the birds which seem determined to kill. The couple finally manage to escape from the house with the mother and sister who carries the love birds. The ending is ambiguous because when they are driving away, the village is still under attack. The audience leaves the cinema with an uneasy feeling.
