Beskrivning
Drawing on Daphne du Maurier''s short story and contemporary newspaper reports of bird attacks in California, Alfred Hitchcock''s The Birds (1963) featured Tippi Hedren in her first starring role. Camille Paglia''s compelling study considers the film''s aesthetic, technical and mythical qualities, and analyses its depiction of gender and family relations. A film about anxiety, sexual power and the violence of nature, it is quintessential Hitchcock.
Camille Paglia''s foreword to this new edition reflects upon the relationship between Hitchcock and his leading lady Hedren in the light of recent debates about male power, female agency and the #MeToo movement.
