    I still remember the first time I saw "The Birds". It was in the 1960s. My eyes were glued to the tv screen. What a suspensel film.

    The Birds is one of my favorites of Alfred Hitchcock! He did so well with his films.... Alfred Hitchcock will always be The Master of Suspense!

    My God! The woman is nearly 80 and she looks incredible!
    If she's had any work done it's the most natural I've ever seen.
    She still looks very much the same as she did in "The Birds" and "Marnie". So many people of her age are totally unrecognizable from their younger incarnations... but I can still see the beauty of her youth.

    @BigScaryJoe: I think Hedren is referring to the brilliant Ub Iwerks, who Hitchcock "borrowed" from Disney Studios to oversee the special effects on "The Birds."

    She found her way around addressing Hitchcock directly, and thanked the AFI invitation as the reason she is there. Must have been really hard to remember a traumatic time in front of an audience when her abuser is being celebrated. Not to take from Hitchcock talent, I admire his artistry but kudos to Tippi for her strength in this situation.

  • @MrImiller07
    @MrImiller07 11 років тому +1

    At the outset, Tippi Hedren, who is now 82, is one of the most breathtakingly stunning mature actresses around. She appeared at a Film Society of Lincoln Center gala for Sean Connery on stage to introduce clips from Marnie in 1995 and also looked great. I believe that there is validity to her account of sexual harassment by Hitchcock during the filming of The Birds and Marnie and his vindictiveness in wrecking her career, as dramatized in the forthcoming HBO movie, The Girl.

    "I fear for the success of it"
    I am so glad she said that. So many times when a remake is made, the original actors tend to be polite and wish them luck, hiding their scorn of the idea (which is good in its own right). However, I like that she is upfront about her opinion that the movie will fail.

    @BigScaryJoe The animators at Disney could still help create effects for other studio movies. Heh, back then they didn't have Industrial Light & Magic or WETA so they had to use The Walt Disney Company xD The effects are great though, even today.

  • @godfreyih

    Du Maurier's story isn't about a "peasant family" by "the seaside". It's about a farm worker and his family living on the very wild and beautiful coast of Cornwall, a county which Du Maurier knew and adored. And the attacks weren't in "the middle part of California" but specificallly in the beautiful town of Santa Cruz on the Monterey Bay. I hasten to add that I revere Ms Hedren, especially for her work on behalf of animals, but she was clearly quite nervous at the AFI appearance.

    @GEVMM I SECOND that. Lest you are interested, 2010 marks the 50th anniversary of a Hitchcock film that seems be to the standard by which many of his later films are measured----PSYCHO.
    Yes, it starred Jamie Lee Curtis's mother Janet Leigh.

    ...not only, it took her quite a few years to finally get out from under his contract to move on and make 40 some more movies, as he HAD ruined her career. He was a genius...yet a narcisisstic man of means! I always held him in such high esteem...I was saddened that he was like this to Tippi!

    Personally I feel there should be new and better ideas rather than the remakes.

    Some comments seem to say she was whining about her career after Hitchcock. I will view this over again because I couldn't hear the first part. But Ms. Hedren is very posed and beautiful and like another commenter, I love to hear her talk! I like her daughter Melanie but she just doesn't come real close to her mother as far as beauty and grace.

    This must have been difficult for her considering what she went through whilst making the film ... I've recently watched HBO's ''The Girl'' and all I can say is wow she has dignity, I couldn't and wouldn't have been so gracious and polite. Yes he was indeed the Master of film making and directing but it seems he was also a monster if the short film ''The Girl'' was anything to go by.

  • @ebonilia
    @ebonilia 11 років тому +1

    I just watched the HBO movie "the girl" and was appalled at his behavior being a huge fan of his work and he was a very powerful man who used his power to inflict such abuse on this strong woman. Why we must protect our rights. With his power he would definitely have used his influence to discredit her. Touche for her for standing her ground

    Poor Tippi, caught in such an awkward position. She called Hitchcock a "fat pig" when he made advances while filming 'Marnie', bitterly alienating each from the other. Yet her star is forever tied to Hitchcock, who discovered Tippi and put her in the two movies people still watch, so she can only say nice things about him.
