Quite an amazing analysis!!! And I see Coughlin got in there too!!! I remember watching The Birds - and being most caught by the end, where they just stopped attacking, no explanation, as there was no explanation for the beginning either - I suppose, mission accomplished.

aw, thank ya muchly Elsa. So first, yes, the birds stopped at the end but I think it was only logical "why" if you look at Melanie's "character Arc"--they totally de-sexed her--from a bombshell to a traumatized mess where wounds replaced her makeup an' she had ta lean on Mitch & Lydia just to walk--kinda a meta theme. And it's clear the birds of prey chastened her for comin' into that small town with...and like...a love bird. Now at the start, it was that she was beautiful, clever, and semi-deceitful (that's how Mitch recognized her--as a lawyer)--she wasn't bad, just a mischief maker--so the film is oddly "moral" as that mischief-they-name-is-woman got punished. It's still a fun film--but for Target to make her a "toy" (after what the director did too) is just (imho) too much!

BUT that's why Coughlin is perfect! As is his lecture on women as he too talks about the gay "agenda" erasing women--real women. So we have a film that wants to "de-nature" us an' a set of smug execs. at Target that wanna erase us... And Coughlin brings in "how" this is done--with all those arcs and larger...targets! so each individual attack cannot be fought. I hope he'll do more interviews now--there's a lotta readin' but sometimes when he explains "in person" it's better--so glad ya shared him--he pairs so well with Charlotte Iserbyt 'bout the deliberate dumbing down of America--most folks don't even SEE what's goin' on--but to me, what's goin' on at Target (inside and out!) is one good indicator!

In the film, yup, "mission accomplished"--spot on! but we don't want our country to look like Bodega Bay after the birds "take over!"

I will see if I can get the message to him, asking for an interview. You have just given me the nudge to go for an interview.

Wild. Although I would probably chalk that toy bird (and its car) up to clueless young creatives/designers who just think it's cute and funny, and have no concept whatsoever of Hitchcock's symbolisms, I'm open to your theory as well. In the last few years, I've awakened to the fact that plenty of stuff I thought was just random has turned out be anything but. You make a compelling case, Daisy!

Shucks, not sure how "compelling" but thanks! Havin' spent a bit o' time studyin' the "sin-e-ma" I'm confident of the film's own symbolism (punishin' a woman for bein' "too much woman") but at Target, yup, I think it goes beyond clueless execs--nope, they don't "git" the full meanin' of what I wrote--but my guess? Some self-important fella (likely a fella)--that finds it an inside joke--who KNOWS this birdie represents a lady that was brutalized, which imho can't be just "cute" (and I love the film but all women who ain't mothers or "unthreatenin'" are treated totally mangled in it!)--nuttin' ta celebrate--so yup, I DO think they knew an' thought it wuz an inside "joke" -- elbow jab elbow jab... So it's "aware" if not fully conscious but enuf fer me to call it out ;-)

Wow! Fantastic deep dive cultural analyses that explains so many things I hated about that movie!

Men have been terrified of women's ability to birth new life from their bodies since the dawn of Homo Sapiens and have sought to control this power in all sorts of horrible ways: female genital mutilation; foot binding; burkas and purdah; sexist stifling laws restricting women's lives, etc.

HANDS OFF OUR CHILDREN! DO NOT TOUCH OUR SACRED CREATOR-GIVEN BODIES!

I consider myself gender nonconforming, but all the drugs and surgical slicing and dicing are pure evil and crimes against humanity!

Demolishing morality and love in America and around the world serves the sinister enslavement goals of the global predators and is inextricably tied into DEI.

The whole 'trans' and 'Diversity/Equity/Inclusion' as perpetrated today, is indeed really very nefarious, a scheme by upper crust technocrats with an anti-life/anti-human agenda to transform the impressionable next generation into sexless, genderless, weak, sickly compliant robotized slaves of their technocratic overlords.

How I stick my thumb in the eyes of the grotesque billionaire bastards pushing their zombie enslavement agenda and how I embrace being fully human.

Amazing Amy: Eccentric Yoga Entertainer!

As an entertainer, I have been devastated and practically destroyed by the closure of all performance venues and then when they reopened, because MY BODY, MY CHOICE - being made a total untermenschen pariah outcast in NAZI NIGHTMARE LAWLESS 'SHOW ME YOUR PAPERS' JAB CROW APARTHEID/DISCRIMINATION/SEGREGATION HELL NYC WHERE THE MAD/DRUNK WITH POWER TYRANT POLS DOUBLE DOWN ON THEIR ILLEGAL MANDATES. I am trapped here with zero financial resources to leave or do anything else about this 'wish I were dead' endless misery life has become. The tragic irony is that my SPREAD THE YOGA LOVE performances are all about health, miraculously overcoming age (69) and injury to achieve feats of flexibility few can attain at any age. So BIG PHARMA who wants to addict every person on the planet to their toxic products hate people like me who prove that we do not need them if we eat healthy organic food and exercise daily!

PROPAGANDA CAMPAIGNS BY POWERFUL, WEALTHY CRIMINALS WITH EVIL INTENT CAN CAUSE ALL KINDS OF HAVOC! QUESTION EVERYTHING!

And these, the criminals behind the NAC and all the other schemes will use hypochondria hysteria and 'climate' hysteria to propagandize the gullible 'sheeple' into complying with TOTAL ENSLAVEMENT which is what this is really about!

A vast majority of so-called leaders and Public 'Serpents' around the world have been bribed, blackmailed/coerced into serving the interests of their technocratic New World Ordure parasite masters and not We the People.

GREED is behind every evil assailing us in the world!

The demonic despots of Davos at it again! They are behind everything bad! At it for decades and cronies like The Rothschilds and the Black Nobility and The Khazarian Mafia have been plotting planetary domination for centuries! ALL BECAUSE OF AVARICE!

We the People must try harder to live by The Golden Rule, doing so would solve most problems!

THEY can't get rid of the 'useless eaters' fast enough! Mistakes were not made, it was always malice aforethought.

CLIMATE CHANGE IS AN EVEN WORSE FRAUD THAN THE PLANSCAMDEMIC! SO-CALLED GREEN TECH IS A GIGANTIC SCAM! MINING AND MANUFACTURING 'GREEN' PRODUCTS NEEDS COAL, GAS AND OIL AND MINING RARE MINERALS IS MORE ENVIRONMENTALLY TOXIC AND DESTRUCTIVE THAN LEGACY PRODUCTS. SCREW YOUR DAMNED AGENDA! https://climateviewer.com

Migrant/Entrant Invasion/Infrastructure Attacks - all part of the destructive plot to achieve total slavery!

Apoplectic livid rage hardly describes the intensity of emotions I have had and am having over what these malignant globalists are perpetrating!

There is no noxious crime that the evildoers desiring to lord it over us won't commit to maintain their stranglehold on power. A groundswell critical mass resistance to their murderous enslavement plans is needed urgently!

Creative performing arts, fine arts and literary arts are the best part of being human and the thing the globalist predator technocrat megalomaniac total slavery control freaks most want to destroy.

Too many 'sheeple' are brainwashed to blindly obey authority figures on the media or in daily life in corrupt system ruled by control freak psychopaths who use propaganda lies to enslave their subjects and they are dumbed down to be obedient by 'education' institutions. Fortunately I was raised to question everything. This transcends party lines. We need a system that punishes psychopaths and rewards compassion and sharing, we need a system that actually follows The Constitution in reality.

I DO NOT COMPLY! NEVER HAVE, NEVER WILL!

There is a fate worse than death - I would rather die than be a robotized slave of technocratic overlords! This is my hill to die on!

I have a landline and a wired laptop and a wired monitor screen, all the tech anyone should ever want or need. I never had and refuse to ever have one of those infernal mobile devices that are designed to enslave you.

My loathing of AI and all things NANO and digital knows no bounds!

Kudos to Daisy Moses's heroic efforts and success in the struggle. We the People must always be aware of the existential threats lurking behind this fight!

All manner of lies and propaganda spew forth from the upper echelons in governments worldwide who are completely intertwined with the global criminal ruling class that wants to commit the worst atrocities imaginable and suffer no consequences. And their corruption slithers down the chain of command creating petty tyrants everywhere.

We the People are facing HORRIFYING TECHNOCRATIC PSYCHOPATHY TO DESTROY HUMANITY AND ALL NATURAL LIFE!

It was NEVER about health! The Powers That Should Not Be were ALWAYS about they want you DEAD or a SLAVE! This is a painful truth to accept but we the people must wake up and fight back!

We must never lose sight of the larger picture of the vile malignance we are fighting against.

There is an insidious global ruling class plot to enslave all life on earth behind all the madness and suffering inflicted on We the People.

How to fight back against this TOTAL SLAVERY!

RESIST! DO NOT COMPLY! DITCH THE DAMNED 'SMART' PHONES AND THE DAMNED QR CODES AND GO BACK TO LANDLINES OR FLIP PHONES AND USE CASH AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE! INSIST ON CASH! CBDC IS TOTAL SLAVERY!

Other than getting rid of nuclear weapons which I support 100% the rest of the anti-nuclear peace movement and CLIMATE CRISIS propaganda is parroting UN utter GARBAGE, a complete surrender to the ENSLAVEMENT AGENDA by the diabolical despots of Davos - ruling class criminals who lust for total power and control and all of whom should be tried and jailed for life and their malign organizations dismantled: the UN, the WEF, the IMF, the WHO, the BIS, NATO, Blackrock, Vanguard, The Rockefellers, the Rothschilds, The Bilderbergers, the CFR et al.

There is an evil predator globalist technocratic elite agenda of eugenics/depopulation/genocide using bioweapon poison jabs, war, geoengineering, EMF radiation, starvation and economic collapse - THE GREAT RESET/AGENDA 2030/4TH INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION to get rid of billions of 'useless eaters' and to use nano tech to turn the survivors into ROBOTIZED COMPLIANT SLAVES! WAKE UP AND RESIST! DO NOT COMPLY! These are psychopath megalomaniacs who want to play god by turning all life into digitized metaverse mechanistic synthetic biology to be manipulated by their AI algorithms. A more demonic sickening idea is nearly impossible to imagine!

APPALLED AND HORRIFIED AT INSANE TYRANNICAL PROTOCOLS THAT HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH HEALTH AND EVERYTHING TO DO WITH TOTALITARIAN CONTROL! REVERSE THIS NOW!

NO, I AM NOT AFRAID OF THE MORONIC SCARIANT SHMARIANT MONKEYSHINES! WAKE UP ALREADY!

Amy, you are YOU an' an amazing unique person! As ya know--the PRIDE movement has become a SHAME (we'd say a "shonda")--an' vile--an' as ya said the DEI stuff is nefarious. I find the whole idea of "conforming" odd anyway--we women come in all shapes, sizes, talents an' variations--already (from the start) womanhood includes the fawncy ladies AND the Rosie the Riveters AND yoga-contortionists too! ;-) Ironically Miss Tippi Hedren was--er IS (she's still around!) one of the most unique an' non-"conforming" actresses--she likely took a few risks too many with her kids around the wild critters, but she was bold an' brave! She wore pants AND lived with TIGERS! In her house! She has always taken in sheltered ZOO ANIMALS--kinda like a lady lion tamer. To me that's a great example of an outlier in real life--bless 'er!

So it's not about individuals conformin'--it's about commercializin' their own twisted sense of normacy which is (ironcially) based on stereotypes. So I just rail against what some "fierce" but lame agenda-driven executives at Target did with this bird toy that seemed SO wrong (even as someone who doesn't mind camp at all!)--an' yes, the "character" in the film is totally brutalized--systematically--no wonder you were not a fan. Suspense-wise, it's a brilliant film--but what it did to women is of course terrible so Target does NOT need to celebrate it! And yes, our sacred god-given bodies are dang perfect as they are :-) (this surgical push is an'nuther very scary thing!)

I LOVED that Tippi Hedron loved animals and I have her book about it ‘The Cats of Shambala’ (McGraw-Hill, NY 1986), highly recommend!

Agreed re the junky junk--but it's the message...it's demeaning to women which is FAR beyond just junk--a toy fer kids that represents a woman who was pecked bloody & "humbled" for bein' a woman--so I'm callin' it out. If they celebrated Mae West with a Mae bird I'd have thought it just funny (similarly an icon for gays but she never would'a worked for Hitch! she produced her own movies!)

(Re Faul vs Paul--ha ha, no, it's two different fella's--one's INCHES taller--it goes on--but you kin chalk it up to my bein' a crackpot if ya like. It would take me a looong time ta cover it fer y'all here as it's many leeetle rabbit holes--but even the xrays / dental / bone structure / voice don't match--Fans know it--Faul had ta learn how ta play geetar with the left hand--sometimes he forgot! George hinted at it all on his deathbed. Anywho--they turned it inta one big conspiracy theory to get the "marks" to look elsewhere an' dismiss it. But respectfully--if you look inta it--there's a lotta compelling evidence--MI6 was involved--fans knew--the hardcore ones)-- Even Sir Faul wrote a book on it--under pseudonym Billy Shears--but under his own publishing company--it's fulla puffery too (sayin' he was better than "Paul")--the cabal likes tellin' us an' then laffin at us about it all--BUT no worries if ya wanna write it off--never offended...

One little peek at a very big rabbit hole (IF ya like, no worries if yer not inta lookin')

the reason I stated this story is shocking:

My husband is from Bolton England. They were 50 minutes from Liverpool.

His parents, and those on his father's side especially, knew the McCartney family for many years in the 50's 60's and 70's in general, then my husbands family came to the US.

Has anyone actually done any research with the McCartney family? The photos are not accurate in showing facial changes at all. this guy's webpage is still pretty interesting and entertaining.

The McCartney family is very tight lipped (if ya dig deep, they were paid to be). Now if ya look at Jon Halliday--the person who gives tours at Paul's childhood home--THAT FACE is far more like baby-faced "original" Pauls--many think that's his twin brother an' that he was given a lifetime job in exchange for his silence

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=04IyjV66B8M

Look at the face--there is SO MUCH all over...that's the thing--nobody has pulled it all together... OH an' original Paul's accent is not the same as Fauls--yer hubby might be able to hear it tho' some old stuff was overdubbed.

The ears different too:

https://www.checktheevidence.co.uk/articles/Faul/Plastic%20Macca%20-%20Paul%20is%20Dead%20%20Faul's%20False%20Ears.htm

An' all the hints in the songs, in imagery (Paul barefoot, etc)... I at first didn't believe it myself...

When MI6 is involved (Beatles were a Tavistock creation from the git-go)... folks know to stay silent if they know what's good for 'em... Watch Ringo today--he loved the real Paul but is dee-skusted with Faul--there's shots of him turnin' away--it's a thing.

One last rabbit hole--look up old photos of Jane Asher with "real" Paul--then look up later photos--real Paul was short, Faul is tall--some photos doctored but not all--

Also Lennon was real Paul's best pal--for Faul he had nothin' but scorn--also palpable when they were forced together. Yoko was a spook handler for John--some say he was taken out as he threatened to reveal the entire "con" (includin' a replaced Paul)--some say Faul called in the "hit" on John... like I said, many rabbit holes...

THIS is published by Paul McCartney--fiction? much! (a lotta bravado too) fact? too much to erase!--enjoy the dive if yer game-- a 666 page book (my my the're laffin' at us now!)

The MI6??

They are kind of like the 51 "former Government intelligence professionals" that claim Hunters laptop is Russian disinformation and to stop talking about it on the "news"

MI6 is the British CIA. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MI6

The secret service there--velly official (but they too play hardball). Like the CIA they'll try to quash what they're callin' "disinformation"--

fwiw, the Beatles "Handler" was rumored to be named Maxwell (he was with MI5, just another division of British Intelligence)--so I read that they fantasized doin' away with their controllin' handler via the song (Maxwell's Silver Hammer)--the reference was such an inside "dig" it got out on the album release-- but from what I read--they were "cautioned" never to do it again... the boys were chastened many times by the British Secret Service... not happy about it either!

My own two cents is that even tho' they were "put together" by Tavistock--they ended up being tee-riffic--an' resistant to the manipulations of their handlers (musical an' governmental)--an' that's so whuther or not ya believe in the Faul thing. John's death was not just a lone nut--he was a livin' risk, a loose cannon was John--who had been closest to the real Paul an' didn't like the BS... I think that was one reason he was taken out--too outspoken... may he RIP (an' the real Paul too)--

Oh an' yes, the British had a lot to do with the Steele Dossier--it was a collaborative effort--Matt Ehret had a podcast 'bout that I think... it was "laundered" thru their intelligence to git the demo-craps' fingerprints off of it... All the 5 eyes work together (not in a good way neither!)

If I hadn't been reading you for some time, I might have suspected that this analytic gumbo was something created by the cinematic cooking team of C. Paglia, P. Kael and J.B.Briggs. Hope none of those are on your 'coal in their stockings' list for whatever reason. It's meant as a high compliment.

wull shucks I couldn't be more flattered!

Caught me just before heading to dreamville. I didn't read much of Kael's film criticism, but I read Sexual Personae soon after the paperback showed up. Like Camille bunches. First encounter with Joe Bob Briggs was his satirical reviews of low-budget action & horror flicks. Might have been in an indie newspaper or maybe a regional magazine. Apparently he did video reviews on some cable networks or maybe internet platforms, but I never watched them. I just lumped him in with Camille & Pauline due to his effervescent irreverence and willingness to 'go there', wherever 'there' was. Here's a one I pulled from YT (there are plenty more). I think around 6:30, he's talking through a 1990s version of your comparison between Tippi Hedrin and Suzanne Pleshette in The Birds. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UIPDQlRzfzE

Talkin' bout rabbit holes! So I didn't know this "Joe Bob" fella from shinola so I follered yer links an' saw yup, he mostly "reviews" the cheesier ones BUT then... I sat thru the entire 37 min interview with Tippi (she's a lotta fun--an' CLEARLY a good sport!) an' then in the interview HE brings up Paglia himself!--the book she wrote on The Birds! I had no idear such a thing existed!--Like yerself I enjoyed "Sexual Personae" muchly when it came out an' I've always loved Paglia in interviews--she's a hoot & wicked-smart--but I had no IDEAR she wrote a book on the "boids." The bits JB read out were REALLY out there--like some kinda super freudian basketball--but in a toned down version, yup, ok, they make sense as well. But/also it's kinda cwazy that this JB Briggs fella who created fer himself this adult Bevis & Butthead kinda hick character--then goes an' brings up this totally wacky egg-head academic writer AND then (a'nuther surprise) we find that Tippi herself had READ Paglia (at least her book on The Birds) an' seems to have enjoyed it!--dangwally, I mean that's 'bout two stereotypes kinda blown outta the water--the "blonde bimbo" actress that reads Paglia (ha! I figgered she wasn't a bimbo but Paglia? dang!) an' then the hayseed Joe-Bob "Character" (his real name is a kinda borin' John Irving Bloom) ALSO read Paglia! funny funny whirled! thanks fer the links too--an' fer the good wishes--sendin' 'em back at'cha!

On re-reading your comment, I think you, like me, haven't read Paglia's book "The Birds", so first off, here's a link to a free download site (free, but I always use a VPN when downloading almost anything, just in case).

https://annas-archive.org/search?index=&page=1&q=camille+paglia+birds&sort=

Click on one of the versions...on next page, choose one of the Slow Partner Servers (#3 & #6 are slower, but no wait time)...clicking on one of the server options will result in a page where you click on the lightly bolded words "Download Now"...pretty soon you should have the book on your computer. :-)

.

I didn't scroll far enough on the YT page to find Joe Bob and Tippi...if you found that show on another platform, please advise where you found it...I'm ready!

Right...Paglia is fast & wicked-smart...I wonder if she'd accept an invite for a sit-down and chat session with Joe Bob...I'd pay some serious coin for that confab.

I'd love to be able to talk 10% and listen 90% to/with Paglia, but only if we we're in a coffee shop where I could have quad-espressos at a moment's notice, and she was limited to some kind of soothing herbal tea...either that or take a time machine back to the 1980s and equip me with a couple grams of what P.J O'rourke called Peruvian marching powder, which, thankfully isn't in the cards.
