The plot of the first half of the film is too long, the ending editing is very compact, and the soundtrack is not used in the whole film. In addition to the discussion of the relationship between man and nature, the film establishes a special connection between the protagonist's family and the flock of birds' attacks. The initial attacks mostly occurred when the possessive mother rejected the arrival of the heroine. This symbolism reflects the real problems of such families, and the lovebirds in cages are also a form of surveillance oppression and a cry for freedom. This is my second Hitchcock. Compared with "Psycho", it has more disaster elements, less horror and suspense, and a medium look and feel.
