The Birds

Friday, March 31 - Saturday, April 1, 2017

DCP projection

“‘THE BIRDS Is Coming’ the advance posters twittered ungrammatically but with justifiable excitement. With death dropping blandly out of a clear sky – its menace magnified into apocalypse from the crop-dusting scene in North by Northwest – this is Hitchcock at his best. Full of subterranean hints as to the ways in which people cage each other, it’s fierce and Freudian as well as great cinematic fun, with ample fodder for the amateur psychologist following up on Hitch’s tortuous involvement with his leading ladies.” – Time Out (London)
