The Birds / USA / 1963
Creepy…even a chuckling audience that had obviously seen the film before sat quietly while those crows gathered on the monkey bars. Nature aside the mother/daughter relationships in this film are so very bizarre and layered – Melanie with a lack of Mother, Lydia as the Mother who won’t let go, the flock of Mothers staring at Melanie as the harbinger of doom, the doubling of Melanie and Lydia, and all those screaming children running to their Mothers. Not to sound repetitive since many have mentioned it, but the soundtrack is incredible – I want to turn the image off when I get my hands on the DVD and only leave the audio track on, especially the last scene in the house as they wait for the birds in the living room.
