MPAA Rating: PG13
Director: Alfred Hitchcock
Genres: Horror
Rating:

The story begins as an innocuous romantic triangle involving wealthy, spoiled Melanie Daniels (Tippi_Hedren), handsome Mitch Brenner (Rod_Taylor), and schoolteacher Annie Hayworth (Suzanne_Pleshette). The human story begins in a San Francisco pet shop and culminates at the home of Mitch's mother (Jessica_Tandy) at Bodega Bay, where the characters' sense of security is slowly eroded by the curious behavior of the birds in the area. At first, it's no more than a sea gull swooping down and pecking at Melanie's head. Things take a truly ugly turn when hundreds of birds converge on a children's party. There is never an explanation as to why the birds have run amok, but once the onslaught begins, there's virtually no letup. Hal Erickson, Rovi
