Description

The Birds (Universal, 1963). Half Sheet (22" X 28").
Daphne Du Maurier's short story is chillingly brought to life in this, one of director Alfred Hitchcock's greatest films, in which a small coastal town is terrorized by a sudden attack of birds. Tippi Hedren, the film's lead, was discovered by Hitchcock while doing a commercial on the Today Show in 1962. Shortly thereafter, he placed her under a personal contract and cast her in this picture, which turned out to be a star-maker for the pretty young actress. This dramatic half sheet offered here has a smudge in the top border and some light wrinkling at the fold lines, but is otherwise clean and fresh, a perfect addition to any collection. Folded, Very Fine+. *****
