THIS IS A RARE QUESTION AND ANSWER 7" RED VINYL 45 rpm RECORD WHICH WAS SENT TO RADIO STATION DJ's TO PROMOTE ALFRED HITCHCOCK'S "THE BIRDS" IN 1963. THE RECORD HAS SEVERAL SHORT BLANK SPOTS WHERE THE RADIO STATION DISC JOCKEY WOULD READ THE QUESTION LIVE ON THE AIR FROM A WRITTEN TRANSCRIPT AND THEN TIPPI WOULD RESPOND ON ONE SIDE OF THE 45, HITCH ON THE FLIP SIDE.  THE WRITTEN SHEET OF QUESTIONS IS GONE, BUT THE ANSWERS AND DISCUSSION OF THE FILM IS QUITE INTERESTING. TIPPI TALKS ABOUT MEETING DIRECTOR ALFRED HITCHCOCK, WORKING ON THE SET, REHEARSAL, HOW HITCH EDUCATED HER, HOW THE BIRDS WERE TO BE USED, SEEING HERSELF ON THE BIG SCREEN, THE PHOTOGRAPHY.  SHE TALKS ABOUT BEING ATTACKED BY HUNDREDS OF OF CROWS AND SEAGULLS THROWN AT HER FOR 5 DAYS, THE SCRATCH UNDER HER EYE AND HER FOUR DAY REST DUE TO DOCTOR'S ORDERS.  SHE SAID THE FILM TERRIFIES HER.

THE FLIP SIDE HAS HITCH TALKING ABOUT THE FILM MENTIONING THE BIRDS TAKE AN ANTAGONISTIC VIEW OF MANKIND, AS WE EAT THEM, WEAR THEM ON HATS, ETC. AND THUS THEY ATTACK INDIVIDUALS AND COMMUNITIES. HE SAID IT WAS THE MOST DIFFERENT FILM HE HAD EVER MADE.  HE TALKED ABOUT THE DIFFICULTIES OF MAKING THE FILM AS PRODIGIOUS. hE SPOKE OF 2000 FINCHES LET DOWN THE CHIMNEY AND HOW HARD IT WAS TO FEND THEM OFF.  HE TALKED ABOUT THE HUMANE TREATMENT OF THE BIRDS BECAUSE THEY GOT TIRED DURING THE LONG SHOOT. HE TALKS ABOUT HIS "NEW STAR" TIPPI IN THE ATTIC SCENE AND MENTIONS SHE COMES OUT "WORSE FOR THE WEAR".  HE MENTIONS ROD TAYLOR, JESSICA TANDY AND SUZANNE PLESHETTE.  HE SAYS THAT BECAUSE TIPPI WAS INEXPERIENCED, SHE HAS THAT MUCH LESS TO "UNLEARN" WHEN WORKING WITH HIM. HE TALKS ABOUT HIS CAMEO APPEARANCE IN THE BIRDS.  HE ADVISES THE LISTENERS TO "TAKE A COUPLE OF ASPIRIN" BEFORE SEEING IT AND SAYS "IT IS THE MOST TERRIFYING PICTURE I EVER MADE!".

SHE GAVE A MOST ORNATE SIGNATURE AND SHE WROTE "WITH FEAR!!!" UNDERNEATH HER SCREAMING FACE AND DREW THREE FLYING BIRDS TO BOOT! I WILL TREASURE IT ALWAYS!

Alfred Hitchcock, who was on holiday in northern California, was struck by a story in the Santa Cruz newspaper: "Seabird Invasion Hits Coastal Homes." From this peculiar incident, and his memory of a short story by Daphne du Maurier, Hitchcock came up with one of his strangest and most terrifying films. The Birds follows a glamorous blonde, Melanie Daniels (Tippi Hedren), as she travels to the coastal town of Bodega Bay to meet up with a handsome fellow (Rod Taylor) she's recently just met. Before long the town is attacked by marauding birds, in great Hitchcock style. Beside the superb effects,  The Birds is also one of Hitchcock's most psychologically complicated films, a tense study of violence, loneliness, and complacency. The anxiety and the eerie quiet between attacks makes ones' skin crawl. The director chose an unknown model, Tippi Hedren, to being his newest cool, blond leading lady, an experience that was not always easy on the much-pecked Ms. Hedren. Still, she did manage to return for the next Hitchcock picture, the underrated Marnie. Blown off by serious critics in 1963, The Birds has grown into a classic and--despite all the sci-fi trappings--one of Hitchcock's most thoughtful films.
