Model turned actress Tippi Hedren (Melanie Griffith's mother) starred in Alfred Hitchcock's 1963 classic The Birds. Her blonde hair, elegance and style made her the perfect Hitchcock heroine. 
Apparently her good looks did not go unnoticed by Hitchcock. He developed a deep fascination with Tippi but when she did not return his feelings, Hitchcock decided to let the birds do the talking for him. Instead of using mechanical birds during the attack scenes, Hitchcock used live birds that scratched up Tippi to the point that filming had to be postponed. Quite a naughty move by Mr. Hitchcock.

Rather than remain restricted to the 1960s time period when thinking about The Birds, how about a more fantastical approach.
