Sienna Miller’s ‘horrible’ bird attack

By Tribute News on December 10, 2012 | 5 Comments


Sienna Miller Sienna Miller went through a "horrible" bird attack during filming for The Girl. The British beauty plays actress Tippi Hedren in the HBO TV film, which explores behind the scenes of Sir Alfred Hitchock's 1963 film The Birds, and in order to get into character, Sienna had birds thrown at her - an experience she describes as "not very nice." Speaking in an interview with The Sunday Times Culture magazine, she said: "I did go through a bird attack - but for two hours, which pales in comparison to what [Tippi] was subjected to. "But it was pretty horrible - we enacted the whole thing. There were people throwing seagulls and pigeons in my face, and, while I'm not terrified of birds, I don't exactly adore them. There's something about that flapping in the face, the claws and beaks and things, which isn't ... very nice."

    Me too.I thought they are not supposed to hurt animals while filming any movies. They usually declare that in the end title. I dont really care about her complaining about birds throwing at her face. She would have known from the script she is reading.
