The Birds

At the first look at the title, I assumed this was going to be another boring film. Until someone told me that the movie was about birds attacking people. Now I was interested. The Birds starts out a little boring. It starts with the main character (Melanie) working in a bird shop and a guy named Mitch shows up. It's obvious that they are interested in each other. They talk about different birds and he is looking for love birds. After he leaves the store, she ends up bringing love birds to his house, which is a somewhat strange thing to do in my opinion. Then, when she is trying to go back, a bird scratches her on the head. The reason why is unclear. It seems like it might have been an accident. The characters probably didn't think much about this yet.

At the kids party is when the movie really starts to get more interesting. Out of nowhere, birds start attacking the kids and everyone panics. Once they are all safe, Melanie starts to notice a lot of things happening with the birds and how it can't be a coincidence since the two other previous events with the birds happened. The first was when she was hurt by the bird and the second was when a bird hit Annie Hayworth's door.

Then, it happened again when they were in the house. Birds started swarming in and attacking again through the chimney. Luckily, no one was hurt and they were able to get all the birds out. Now even Mitch agrees that what is happening is strange and not a coincidence.

I'm wondering why the birds are attacking people. What is the cause of this problem? How are the characters going to resolve it?
