Rod Taylor
Rod Taylor had to tweak the dialog or he would refused to do this movie.The original script, he was stiff and unfeeling about the Women he was with. He wanted to have a funny dialog. He enjoyed this movie. It did not hurt his career at all, it opened doors that he could do comedy.
Vittorio Salo allowed Rod Taylor to change his dialog and was very glad he did.
The Birds
Mitch Brenner.....Afred Hitchcock
Afred Hitchcock saw this movie, several times before hiring Rod Taylor for The Birds as Mitch Brenner. He saw him as a good actor that could be believed in anything.
