a chance encounter

I've always known about this movie, but I didn't get to see it, and I saw it on TV by chance. The movie starts when the heroine finds a way to send a bird. At first glance, it feels like Hitchcock's style, so I watch it patiently. But the amount of information about the film is too small, and I don't know what kind of film it is. Baidu searched for a long time and had no clue. When I saw the scene where the telephone pole was full of birds, I thought of "The Birds" in a flash. It's not a movie review, it's just a record of this encounter. By the way, maybe the two lovebirds brought by the heroine are the kings of birds, and the birds attacked to rescue those two birds.

    The sets for many shots are relatively fake (this is a 1963 film, so the technical requirements cannot be too high), the first half is too procrastinated, and the second half has a good atmosphere, but why is it suddenly gone? The ending sucks!

    It still looks so classic now, with smooth and subtle camera movement and a taut atmosphere.

The Birds quotes

  • Sebastian Sholes, fisherman in diner: Hell, maybe we're all getting a little carried away with this. Admittedly a few birds did act strange, but that's no reason to...

    Melanie Daniels: I keep telling you, this isn't 'a few birds'! These are gulls, crows, swifts...!

    Mrs. Bundy, elderly ornithologist: I have never known birds of different species to flock together. The very concept is unimaginable. Why, if that happened, we wouldn't stand a chance! How could we possibly hope to fight them?

  • Annie Hayworth: Don't they ever stop migrating?
