The Redford Theatre showed Hitchcock's The Birds, with ultra special guest Tippi Hedren. The Redford Theatre is an awesome venue. It is decorated in a unique Japanese style. The architectural elements have been preserved since its unveiling in 1928. The pipe organ is an impressive piece of art and is raised and lowered using a manual crank by the organist. He takes a seat and plays a number of selections. Then, with sweeping drama the curtains open to reveal a giant American flag, the signal for the crowd to sing 'The Star Spangled Banner.' The film was excellent, made even better by the Q&A session with the star of The Birds, actress Tippi Hedren. She was poised, gracious, and charming. She told stories about her time on the set with Hitchcock, and reminisced about her big move from Manhattan to LA. This was a truly memorable, fun event that my child will remember forever. Even the popcorn was exceptional.
