The Birds | Daphne Du Maurier, Derek Strange

From another favorite movie of mine, The Birds.

The flapping of wings,
trapped like a bird in a cage;
predator now prey.

Five Comedies | Aristophanes

Very dense. I took it on because I found it amongst my late father's collection, & my love for him was so intense & reverential that I just had to read it. But honestly, I had a very difficult time slogging through it. Again, as with other comments I've made, if I can't understand & enjoy a classic, there's something wrong with me, not the work.

The Making of Hitchcock's The Birds | Tony Lee Moral

Day 15 - #TheBirds #HorrorSeason

I watched this movie as a teenager and found it very scary. Afterwards I was attacked by some birds while walking to my friends house. Scary too!

Klou

Sleepswithbooks Gaaahhhh @EadieB !!! Those swooping beaks are terrifying!!! 5y

EadieB @Stacypatrice Yes they are! 5y

Klou OMG really? That must have been traumatic after watching a horror about birds! This is one of the few on the list that I haven't seen yet. It does sound good though. 5y

EadieB @Klou It was traumatic. They were swooping down into my hair and I was swatting at them with my sweater that I was carrying. 5y

Klou @EadieB oh my gosh!!! 5y

EadieB @Klou Totally unbelievable! 5y

plemmdog I saw it for the first time recently at a pandemic drive-in. It provoked a lot of discussion about the roles of women and nature (I also didn‘t realize it‘s based on a Daphne du Maurier story). I still can‘t believe Jessica Tandy played the widow (Driving Miss Daisy!) 5y

EadieB @plemmdog Yes Daphne Du Maurier did write the book. Tandy was in a lot a movies. She‘s a great actress! 5y

The Birds | Alfred Hitchcock

Anyone else not a fan of birds? These swooping beaked terrors have been responsible for causing an irrational fear inside me since I was a kid. I think it started from the days of AquaNet and fearing the flapping monstrosities would get caught in my hair. Yet I can never pass up on this movie!
