girldetective

Guess what I did the other night!? I went to see Hitchcock's The Birds on the big screen in an old theater just as if it was in the day - a little more punked up but you know what I mean. It was great! Just great. The color was fab in that subtle retro way and the film in good shape. It was good to see Tippi and Rod, and the the the those birds. Tippi was quite the girl - wearing her high heels and mink in the motorboat, not a hair out of place. She epitomizes the girl detective that I will never be. Hmpf.

I vaguely remember reading the DuMaurier story, but I dont remember a reason given for the birds' murderous behavior and the film gives no explanation. Just wondering - what do you make of it?
