“You couldn’t take your eyes off the screen when Jimmy Stewart started stammering, you didn’t believe he was acting for a moment. He might have been the guy down the block, or at least the fellow you saw occasionally at the market, but he was the sexiest man who played opposite me in thirty years. It was that boyish charm, that enchanting innocence.”
  — Kim Novak

This film will never cease to terrify me. Its not about the “special effects”, (which do seem absurd now due to our new special effects), but the story, the concept, of something so mundane and seemingly innocuous as birds turning murderous and predatorial.

A quote from

Alfred Hitchcock (via dgdelatorre)

Why does nobody listen to the wisdom of this man today? he hit the problem with cinema on the nose 30-40-50 years ago.

(via classicsdoitbetter)

"In many of the films now being made, there is very little cinema: they are mostly what I call “photographs of people talking”. When we tell a story in cinema, we should resort to dialogue only when it’s impossible to do otherwise. I always try first to tell a story the cinematic way."

“Three of the most erotically charged kisses in film history”

Cary Grant and Ingrid Bergman in Hitchcock’s Notorious.

Swoooooooooon. Seriously though, there’s this intense chemistry fueled undercurrent running throughout this string of scenes. Heart is racing.
