    In the birds the book and movie are really different. To me i really preferred the movie over the book but the both seemed pretty pointless and pretty stupid because like in the movie the characters have different names.

In the movie in the beginning the girl started off in a bird shop pretending to work there and so when a man walked in pretending to buy some

The song itself is vital to the ending scene and ultimately the entire film. The lyrics are significant to the narrator’s inner turmoil‚ not only throughout the film‚ but also at the concluding moment and the auditory elements
