The film is based on a highly pessimistic horror short story, "The Birds" by Daphne du Maurier. In the original short story, Nat Hocken (the protagonist) eventually realizes that he is the sole survivor of the bird attacks in Cornwall, and that he is unlikely to survive the next attack. His reaction is to smoke his last cigarette, and calmly wait for his inevitable death.
