Nothing equals The Birds for sheer terror when Alfred Hitchcock unleashes his foul friends in one of his most shocking and memorable masterpieces. As beautiful blonde Melanie Daniels (Tippi Hedren) rolls into Bodega Bay in pursuit of eligible bachelor Mitch Brenner (Rod Taylor), she is inexplicably attacked by a seagull. Suddenly thousands of birds are flocking into town, preying on schoolchildren and residents in a terrifying series of attacks. Soon Mitch and Melanie are fighting for their lives against a deadly force that can't be explained and can't be stopped in one of Hollywood's most horrific films of nature gone berserk.

There was one
Too bad a sequel still managed to happen
They made a Bird's 2, lands end released in 1994. Tippi had a bit part in the film which she wasn't happy about. She was interviewed about it, she remarked that it would have been better had they given her a cameo as Melanie Daniels, rather than cast her in a bit role as a different character.
Yes please do
I think it’s so hilarious how the main character just slaps the scared lady.
She had it coming when she called poor Melanie "evil"!
She was like “This ain’t The Mist, we ain’t gonna have another Ms. Carmady”
I love the distant shot of the town after the fire starts, like you are seeing it from the birds’ perspective. It’s brilliant. The direction and acting in this scene is very good too.
It's almost like a signal for them to attack
That's a very classic and historic shot in movie history. Hitchcock was also afraid of height, so he added his own fear into this very dramatic and panoramic show, and the decision to keep the camera steady was pretty brilliant ! Another thing which I find extremely macabre and disturbing, is Kathy's account on how 'they covered her'',our imagination conjures up something pretty horrid and based on what she is saying, the death of Annie was happening during this scene, as Kathy mentions them running outside to see what the explosion was. It's a masterpiece of a movie
That was probably a drone shot 😅
Fun fact: Except for the fire and the people moving around, the aerial shot is a painted piece with the seagulls added in post.
Seeing the horror through Melanie's eyes, masterful. Pure genius
Hitch was a genius!!
@nathanieldavis5231 He was an abuser. She got pelted with birds for 5 days straight and her physician had to stop him
@@Firegirl483should have been longer
I love birds 😂😂😂
This diner scene is not only (in my view) the best scene in the movie, but its a scene that comports with any era of society, because its that good!
The shot where the seagull crashes into the phone booth and the glass cracks scared me.
When I Kid thi horrified me
It scared Tipi too. The glass got all in her hair and face. Took all day to pick it out.
That is a defining moment for sure.
I never let my kids see this bird movie til they turn 16 when they old enough learn quite experienced
Another legendary scene! 👏
The scene where the birds start descending into the chaos always gives me shivers. Pure genius.
Recently seen this again for the 50th time but this time in cinemas for the 60th anniversary. Gosh what an experience. It was like watching this classic masterpiece all over again. Loved it!
This is definitely one of the greatest films ever made 🖤
Fellini called it one of the ten most beautiful films ever made. Truffaut said 'Cinema was invented so we can see things like the bird attacks in the bird.' Ingmar Bergman was a great admirer of Hitchcock and even borrowed several scenes from him!
Yep
It is one of the greatest movies and probably Hitchcock's greatest film. I think that this is one of the most visually stunning films ever made, and you can never stop being fascinated by it, a real masterpiece.
Part of the reason Hitch used seagulls in this film is that they can be trained fairly easily, and will forget that training if no one is working with them (I've seen people ask "Why aren't there any owls?" There _was_ a scene at the end where the survivors encounter an owl, but Hitch considered it too comical and had it cut). So these seagulls were captured at a San Francisco trash dump and taught by animal trainer Ray Berwick and his team to land on people's heads when they were standing still (the people, not the birds). Every time a bird performed the trick successfully, he or she got a treat. In the scene where they're chasing people, the birds were trying to land on the actors' heads for a treat but couldn't because the actors were moving. As soon as the cameras stopped rolling, the actors stopped running, the birds landed on their heads and they were fed a treat (the birds, not the actors).
For the scene where Tippi Hedren gets attacked and cut open by a bird, they used an ingenious method to make it work. Tippi had two tubes running up her body to her forehead: one shot compressed air and the other, stage blood. The bird was one of the seagulls that had been trained to land on people's heads. When it tried to land on Tippi, the air tube sprayed the bird, scaring it away and at the same time, the other tube squirted blood on Tippi's forehead.
After principal photography wrapped on _The Birds,_ the trained seagulls were released back into the wild. For weeks, San Francisco was plagued with mysterious reports of seagulls landing or trying to land on people's heads. The producers of this film could've cleared up the mystery, but they weren't talking!
In the attic scene I heard the used some real birds. Tippi got a bad cut under her eye and they had to stop filming for a bit.
Yeah I remember that. She said they were throwing live birds at her.
That’s so fascinating. Thank you for sharing 🩶
Fun Fact: The glass in the phone booth was supposed to be shatter proof; but as you can see at 4:53, when the gull
smacks into the glass, it shatters, and the glass got all over her Miss Tippi Hedren's face. They had to spend the afternoon removing little flecks
of glass off of Miss Hedren's face.
I lkie how the old woman, who is all confident & knowing, is looking terrified after the attack, as she realises perhaps she doesn't understand birds as well as she thought she did.
Biggest L in cinematic history. It’s so.. heavy. Like imagine being some pompous know it all, preaching birds would never attack for no reason, then immediately witnessing birds cause fiery explosions, utter mayhem and human life casualties lmao.
I said that too👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾…she ain’t knowing NOTHING about birds. 🦢
Casting Rod Taylor as Mitch was a masterstroke. The man had an awesome physique, to go with his rugged features and granite jaw, and was, physically, everything that a heroic leading man is supposed to be; yet his strength and toughness, which would make him an easy match for any human foe, are utterly useless against the threat of the birds. To amend that old margarine commercial's slogan: "It's not nice to fool with Mother Nature".
He became a full fledge star in the 60s
He was the voice of pongo on 101 dalmatians animated movie
Tarantino cast him in his final role onscreen in Inglourious Bastards. It was a very small part with only a couple lines as Winston Churchill. He passed away soon after.
@@larrybland7187 😲👍
My parents did not allow us to go see this in the theatre, with good reason. Watching it again might cause me to have a nightmare even now. Pure genius when the gulls amass in the aerial shot over the burning town.
I saw it as a kid. Was on the edge of my seat the whole time. I've been friendly to the birds ever since lol
Hitchcock loved deep, distant shots with someone or thing in close. The town far below, burning, a slight wind in the ears, the first bird floats in close...
Only then you know. It’s happening.
This is one of the best animal horror movies I have seen in.
Pure cinema. Pura Hitch. Pure MASTERPIECE!
NGL this movie is iconic ✨
Another masterpiece by Alfred Hitchcock
so impressed...all before CGI, etc.
I love how we don’t know why the birds attacked but it has something to do with yet again the silent theme of the whole mother vs girlfriend complex of Mitch
Oswald Cobblepot would love this. 🐧🌂
Ironically, Daphne du Maurier's short story, on which the film is loosely based, had a theme that is more timely today than it was in 1963. In the story, the attacks are worldwide, and are decimating humanity. The protagonist -- who, together with his family, is almost certainly doomed -- figures out at the end that the birds are avenging themselves on the human race for the destruction of their habitats and populations. In other words, an eco-horror story.
What kind of speices of birds were in the novel?
I'm a HUGE fan of ecohorror, especially the "big bug" novels of the '60s, '70s and '80s!
Caging of birds is inhumane so we see how humans feel being restricted or caged if you will, protecting themselves from attacking birds.
I thought the cause of the attacks was the lovebirds, and that they had to be freed because they shouldn't be caged and the pair didn't belong together. It would symbolize that the two leads also shouldn't be together, and the movie would end sadly with them parting ways.
Instead it just....had no ending..
@@kevindavis296 Only hummingbirds, go figure! But the major issue in my mind has always been whether Du Maurier knew that birds were straight descendants of dinosaurs.
Absolute masterpiece
How this DUDN'T WIN the Oscar stuns me.
Politics
The Academy notoriously disregards most thrillers/horror films.
An Absolute Masterpiece 🎬
One of the movies of all time
Well said
I'm not a fan of old 20th-century movies, but I just find this movie pretty epic!!!
A deserved slap @6:11
Even as a kid, I judged the Tippy Hedren character for not letting this guy into the phone booth. @4:37
I"m surprised The Four Phases of Tippi's Face gimmick didn't become a staple camera technique like close-ups or the converse-with-your-supervisor-while-s/he walks ahead of you down a corridor shot.
Modeled on The Three Phases of Boris's Face? th-cam.com/video/nur4g4r1LN4/w-d-xo.html
No, actually it's the farmer who has his eyes pecked out. Exact match for the Frankenstein shot. th-cam.com/video/M0HjlCowwuM/w-d-xo.html
was that supposed to be humorous at the time, because it made me laugh.
2:50 i like the slow movement from her face
Even though it was supposed to be scary I bursted out laughing That was hilarious
CLASSIC HORROR
Hitchcock painstakingly story boarded every movie.
Can't imagine he did this one.
he did.. the story boards are on some yt video
Vertigo
Psycho
North by northwest
Strangers on a train
The Birds
There will never be another HITCHCOCK🎥
Rear window dial m for murder and late great grace kelly.
Rope, Rebecca
dial m for murder. legend.
One to several generations
Fantastic acting and script masterfull
at 5;02 Looks like he's gonna say "Wher them Dam worlocks at + whers my Time Machine ? We've gotta get outta here !"
Tippi hedren was stunning she would have made a great bond girl
She would have if Alfred Hitchcock hadn't have ruined her career.
So many perfect parts of this scene... except then everyone ran outside for no reason..
The Birds & Psycho are the classic thrillers of the 60’s.
They never explain what’s wrong with the birds
It could possibly be because of Melanie Daniels trying to take Mitch Brennar away from his mother Lydia or maybe not
@@hippiecheezburger5457 😂
It's best that there was no explanation. That's what made it so scary.
Made in 63 , during the Cold War and fear of nuclear destruction, don't forget Moma Nature. How mighty man thinks he is , yet , how vulnerable he truly is.
It was the love birds. They were the cause. The gulls, sparrows and crows were pissed when they saw the love birds in a cage being held by Melanie
Boa tarde, um filme clássico do melhore já feitos. Adorei o vídeo.
is this one of the most chaotic setpieces in movie history?
still better graphics than Birdemic
As a sound-designer, I can't believe they got away with using warped CAT sounds to represent Birds.
If the birds are angry enough to kill people, why wouldn't they sound different? This is fiction, anything is possible.
That sounds nothing like a sea Gull lol
@@Kim-ss5bb the birds are sounding mad and demented which is why they probably sound like cats!!
I saw a documentary about the making of ''The Birds', and it stated that none of the bird sounds were made from real birds or other animals, but that they used electronic sounds which they tweaked.
I was a little boy when this movie came out and, boy, did it ever scare me! The shot where the kids were running out of the school and the birds are attacking them was too much for me. I was in kindergarten so it was really visceral for me to imagine my classmates and I being attacked like that. The way Hitchcock cuts in the flying birds in the foreground was beautifully done. Today's technology could not have done it better. Those creepy bird sound fx were done by a man named Oskar Sala who had an early German synthesizer called a Mixtur-Trautonium. The subject matter was like nothing anyone had ever seen before. Giant spiders and praying mantises and what not were old hat by this time. But the idea of being attacked, overrun and taken over by ordinary birds--no one had ever thought of it as a movie. That birds really could do this to us if they took the notion scared the hell out of people then. We were more innocent then and horror was kid stuff that teenaged couples saw while making out at the drive-in and the thought of birds turning on us leaving us helpless and terrified was itself terrifying.
Came here because of the news about lots of birds invading a town in Australia (4/29/2021). Love This Movie.
There’s a lot of drama in this movie
True mastery with juxtaposition of events in this scene.
You know, the last few years,I’ve really gone back as a cinephile. These are great for me in different ways. I can laugh at the cheesiness and appreciate the Broadway, while being able to shift between and still enjoy it. You can tell what matters most in movies.
what cheesiness?
Cool movie clip
One of my favorite, all-time, film sequences. The bird threat finally becomes incontrovertible at this point. Melanie's prior gilded life is encapsulated in the cage of the phone booth and the public scorn. That omniscient shot from birds-eye view feels like old-testament Godly wrath. Hermann's sonic collage menaces. Such an amazing moment in movies, when the 💩 really hits the fan.
lol I keep watching this and the SNL skit hahahaha its so perfectly done
Hahahaha, That old woman who thought she KNEW SO MUCH ABOUT BIRDS……she knew NOTHING!!!
Old movies hit different
“I need the biggest seed bell you have. No, that’s too big.”
Epic slap@6:11!
Karen? We don't need no stinking Karen!
My favourite part 6:10 EVILLLLLLL!!!!
I’m glad they never rebooted this movie
Never say never
Go home
The hysterical mother in the cafe is Hitchcock's friend Doreen Lang. She was also Roger Thornhill's secretary in the beginning of North by Northwest.
I like how multiple people had to help the guy who fell over but no one bothered to turn the gas off and the smoking guy somehow didn't notice or smell all the gas around his car 😂
My favorite scene
Actually such a good film. Watched it for the first time in a film studies class and everyone was laughing because of the bad cgi, would be interesting to see it remade today with realistic cgi but keeping the same atmosphere.
I’ve always wanted to see The Birds as the Hitchcock film to be a franchise for LEGO Dimensions. Potentially in its sequel.
The gulls just birded a man to death
"I think you're Evil....EVIIILLLL!!!!!"
Please upload full movie love from Pakistan ❤
Mítica secuencia de esta obra de arte de película en sus bodas de diamante sigue siendo un gran clásico.
This movie is so much fun..
amazing movie :)
The birds! They just birded a man to death!
They’re the jerk of the year
"Mine? Mine! Mine Mine!"
I remember watching this when I was a sophomore in high school
After all these years watching this movie I know who was responsible for the bird attacks(spoiler alert), it was Mitch's mother, she tried to get rid of Melanie.
Reason why I know the birds started attacking bodega bay Because the birds begin to rise up to against the humans to punish their nature for granted.
I love the SNL version
Superbe film!
The guy talking at 4 seconds in is Mr Hanson from Little House on the Prairie.
I'm here after watching the SNL sketch with Kate Mckinnon.
Smack! Yes!
"I need the biggest seed bell you have. No, that's too big."
This is great and all, this movie is a classic, but im still wating for something new related to Halloween Kills
YOU OWE US UNIVERSAL!!!!!
I like
You know at the end of the movie, they didn't show the destruction that was done to the town by the birds. It must have been the end of the world.
At 0:10 and 0:18 the Story that is being mentioned does mirror a real event that inspired this Hitchcock film in the first place, except the actual mass Bird attack happened in the Town of Capitola, California on August 18, 1961 as the result of the Birds consuming toxic Algae. Incidentally, Daphne du Maurier, Author of "The Birds", which Hitchcock's film is based on, was inspired by a incident where a Farmer had been attacked by a flock of Gulls that ultimately led Daphne du Maurier to write her short story.
I watched this movie on tv, my brother can hear it and it scared him
I'm so confused as to why this movie terrified so many. I laugh at it 😂
House on Haunted Hill is really funny 1959
60 years ago, this was terrifying to people because they've never seen anything like this before.
@nickxero2740 it's hilarious 😂🤣
When is the release date?
March 28, 1963.
I'm Lucky I Didn't See Pigeons Attacking People In This Film
That would have been even more horrifying!! 🙀
Oh boy those seagulls are trouble.
Now they're touching Hitchcock films? Remaking his films is a crime. Just a crime.
The genius of Hitchcock!
Besides living in the birthplace of snoopy driving past this place is a joy with the small businesses.
Very scary movie .
The town should have unleashed the cats to eat the birds.
this film i wached maybe over 50year olds now i see wiht my plasure
3:06 it’s obvious how this relates to the incident that happened in Santa Cruz 1961 as we see here large flocks of seagulls are literally flying straight into the fire which is the light
*This is why I now feed birds more*
