London
(ANI):
Naomi
Watts
is
set
to
star
in
the
remake
of
Alfred
Hitchcock's
suspense
classic
'The
Birds'
from
1963.
Watts
is
to
take
the
lead
role,
played
by
Tippi
Hedren
in
the
original.
However,
Hedren
is
not
too
pleased
with
the
remake.
She
has
called
the
remake
'insulting'.
"To
take
a
work
of
art
like
that
and
try
to
copy
it
is
like
trying
to
imitate
the
Mona
Lisa," the
Daily
Express
quoted
Hedren
as
saying.
"I
think
Hitch
would
call
them
tiny
tots
trying
to
make
movies
and
ask
why
they
don't
have
an
original
thought
in
their
heads,"
she
added.
