I was interested to see this when I saw some ads for it on HBO. Based on the making of Hitchcock's
"The Birds" and "Marnie" with actress/model Tippi Hedren and focuses mainly on his obsession with
her. Overall HBO does a really good job with its movies but this one seemed to be one of the worst
I have seen come from them in a long time. Sienna Miller is good as Hedren but the guy playing
Hitchcock was pretty awful. The fact that Hitchcock was an even bigger werido than I suspected
didn't help at all. Everything just pointed to a weak movie of the week. I was glad I got to know
more about the story but felt like they could have done a lot more with what they had. I am pretty
sure no one else has seen or plans on seeing this. I will drop a photo of Ms. Hedren below for anyone
interested. I didn't know she was Melanie Griffith's mother.

The bird or the woman? Or the woman while the bird stayed on her arm? Or the bird while it was perched on the woman?
