At times, while directing Robin Williams and Nathan Lane in The Birdcage, Mike Nichols found himself laughing so hard that he had to work from beneath a soundproof blanket in order not to ruin the takes. Can you blame him? Twenty years after its release on March 8, 1996, The Birdcage remains a hilarious landmark. Besides being a smash hit, the film made a movie star out of Lane, gave Calista Flockhart her big break, and provided probably the only opportunity in film history to see Gene Hackman in a platinum blonde wig and a gown.
The Birds, the jaw-dropping thriller that has spooked the nation since 1963, was inspired by a real - and equally eerie - event.

In 1961, two years before the debut of one of the freakiest films in history, hoards of disoriented seabirds rammed themselves into the sides of homes in the Monterey Bay area.
