2. One of the scariest movies ever, especially at

the age of about 9 or 11. That's and oldie but a goodie!

3. Loved that movie

and, as a kid, it freaked me out. Even wrote poetry about it as a teen waaaaay in the late '60s

The Birds
(By Whoa_Nelly)

The birds all leave at dusk
And return again at dawn
Their peering eyes and faces show
They know what's going on

They come to watch my every move
And stare at me all day
They know my patience is not long
And soon I'll be their prey

My patience is worn thin by duask
As their numbers wane
Now to rest and renew myself
Before I go insane.

6. It's odd you should bring this up

This movie has been on my mind a lot lately.

I watched it again the other night and plan to watch it yet again in the next week.

Who has any thoughts on what The Birds symbolize?

7. Failure of relationships between people...

8. After many years, I just watched it again last night.

I never realized this before, but the movie has no music. I think that's what added to the suspense. Sometimes soundtracks can be a distraction, especially if they are "over the top."

11. Canary in the coal mine..

Supposedlt in the movie, the "happenings" had affected the birds' brains and turned them into human-hating machines// They were getting back at humans:)

9. Why did I never consider it that scary?

:shrug:

10. Did you see it as a child?

It freaked me out when I was a kid, but not today.
