    Anti-type handling under the extreme type framework. From disaster to curse, sensory fear extends to motivational fear, the source is repeatedly questioned in the middle, and all rational thinking is broken with the mysterious atmosphere of the climax. A model of sound narrative, microscopic images and macroscopic scenes together form an apocalyptic...

    In fact, Mrs. Bundy gave the answer to the mystery: "Birds are not ferocious creatures, they add color to the world, but human beings insist on making it difficult for creatures to survive on the earth." On a deeper level, love birds refer to the male and female protagonists. After the female protagonist arrived in the town, the birds started to launch the attack mode, which is a metaphor for the defensive mechanism formed by the male protagonist's controlling mother to her son and girlfriend....

    Both the commercial spectacle and the strong external force of the play, the setting of birds, and the description of the deformed mother-child relationship are like the enlargement and exploration of the iconic elements in his last two works "North by Northwest" and "Psycho". The story seems simple and crude, but many intriguing references can be found from the religious/political level and the most basic character arrangement. The atmosphere construction of "Escape from the Dead" and the frog...

    The lovers first fell in love, and the weather was calm. After the deep love, there are disputes on all sides. The flock of ruthless and evil birds, just like the turbulent rumors of unknown traces, are increasingly rampant to attack the weak love. First destroy the birthday full of surprises, and then hurt the naive child. Finally kill opinionated adults. In the fierce riots brought by the birds, the people blamed each other and ran away. People seek shelter walls, and no one gets to the...

    Hitchcock's purest suspense movie, from the use of special effects to the pure sound effect processing without soundtrack, is captivating. The most terrifying picture is the static confrontation, and it is the attack of the smiling seagull for no reason. At the same time, it is embedded in the family. Whether the discussion of relationships, especially the role of mothers (an extension of Psycho), has anything to do with flocks of birds is another puzzling...

    Although it is essentially a heroic disaster film, but because it is Hitchcock's work, it has its own unique romantic, perverted, and mysterious. Attacking humans are seagulls and crows, one black and one white, team-work. The scene of the birds chasing the children is very classic. The environmental disaster story setting is set in the bay, and one can't help but think of Life is Strange. Under the framework of environmental protection, Hitchcock expressed his anxiety particularly accurately,...

    1. It can be viewed as a love movie. The heroine is good-looking and sassy, ​​and the confrontation with the male protagonist in the front is so cute; 2. I wonder if anyone has combined this bird disaster with the parrot fever epidemic at that time. It...

    The suspense is quite full, and it is also very scary. I thought it was another story of a perverted secret room imprisonment, but it turned into a big reunion disaster movie. If the flock of birds has no meaning, then this film is an ordinary film. Why don't the birds attack the nipples when they attack the heroine? Not perverted enough not...

    When Hitchcock and Truffaut talked, they distinguished between suspense and surprise, which was also reflected in the flock of birds. At 1:10, the heroine went to the school to pick up Cathy. The audience began to feel nervous when they saw the first crow landed there, and the heroine was smoking with her back, but the audience could see it, and the audience participated from the beginning. The whole process takes longer, and the audience is provided with 15 minutes of suspense instead of 15...

    In 1963, Hitchcock made this animal disaster film with the level of stunts at that time. I think that few people can still achieve the master-level image appeal. Thousands of years ago, humans put birds in bird cages; today, birds trap humans in phone booths, cars, bars, and homes. This is a revenge of nature against humans. It is a bit far-fetched to say that the flock of birds is regarded as a very possessive...

    flock of birds

    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...

    Hitchcock's grievances and grudges with Tibby Headley

    There is a plate: https://www.toutiao.com/i6494956104693318157/ In 1963, Alfred Hitchcock watched Tippi Hedren's audition footage and told her: "The Birds is coming. That was the best I ever An ambitious work is bigger, better, and more terrifying than any previous film. We want you to be the...
