The Birds: We Ride for Tippi

Elizabeth generously joins Caitlin for re-record of The Birds. (I forgot to hit record last time... RIP.) Elizabeth is a Birds expert, and she's my Hitchcock Blonde. We look at themes of disaster linked to female psyche, man vs nature, and some Oedipal monstrous motherhood. We also do a deep dive into the troubling production, most of which would not fly today. Tangents include: Nick at Nite, pregnant spiders, Reese's preferences, zoos, aquariums, and hamsters.
