Annie Hayworth quotes from The Birds (1963)

Annie Hayworth

This tilling of the soil can become compulsive, you know... Well, it's something to do in your spare time. There's a lot of spare time in Bodega Bay.

Annie Hayworth

Did you drive up from San Francisco by the coast road?

Melanie Daniels

Yes.

Annie Hayworth

Nice drive.

Melanie Daniels

It's very beautiful.

Annie Hayworth

Is that where you met Mitch?

Melanie Daniels

Yes.

Annie Hayworth

I guess that's where everyone meets Mitch.

Annie Hayworth

Well, you needn't worry. It's been over and done with a long time ago.

Melanie Daniels

Annie, there's nothing between Mr. Brenner and me.

Annie Hayworth

Isn't there? Well, maybe there isn't. Maybe there's never been anything between Mitch and any girl.

Annie Hayworth

That makes three times.

Melanie Daniels

Mitch, this isn't usual, is it? The gull when I was in the boat yesterday. The one at Annie's last night, and now...

Mitch Brenner

Last night? What do you mean?

Melanie Daniels

A gull smashed into Annie's front door. Mitch - what's happening?
