Christ, I’m almost 30 and I bought a Barbie. My first barbie, mind you because we could never afford it growing up. Anyway, this one is special because it’s from one of my favorite movies

and it’s 100% real. Hitchcock and The Birds is a pretty odd and amazing choice for a Barbie but so perfect. Melanie Daniels, the San Francisco socialite character in The Birds is kind of an unlikeable beauty who always gets her way. She’s smug, bored and rich and eventually gets comeuppance for a life of complacency in the form of massive bird peckage when she leaves the comforts of her stomping grounds.
