She flees to an isolated motel which is run by a young man under the control of his mother.
‘Vertigo’ tells the story of a police detective who is struggling with his personal demons alongside his obsession with a beautiful woman.

slowly takes a turn for the worst when birds of all kinds suddenly begin to attack people.
William Wyler is a famous director. His movies are well known. He directed movies such as ‘Mrs. miniver’, ‘The Desperate Hours’ and ‘Detective story’. ‘Mrs. Miniver’ is about a British family who fight to survive the first months of World War 2. ‘The desperate hours’ tells the story of three convicts who escaped and they torment a suburban family. Last but not least ‘Detective story’ tells the narrative that one day in the 21st precinct squad room, diverse individuals form a scene for the detective Jim McLeod.
George Stevens is a famous film director, producer, screenwriter and cinematographer. His movies are quite famous. He directed movies such as ‘Something To Live For’, ‘Shane’ and ‘The Diary Of Anne Frank’. ‘Something To Live For’ Tells the story of an actress who becomes an alcoholic after being abandoned.
