A new full trailer for the HBO film The Girl has landed online. The pic examines legendary director Alfred Hitchcockâs (Toby Jones) obsession with his The Birds actress Tippi Hedren (Sienna Miller). We previously were treated to an amusing teaser for the film, but this full trailer is downright creepy in the way Hitchcockâs brooding fixation with Hedren is portrayed. It looks like weâre going to see plenty of scenes that take place on the Birds set, as well as a strong performance from Miller. I canât yet tell if Jonesâ performance as Hitchcock is the appropriate amount of creepy or just plain weird, but Iâm eager to catch the full film when it premieres on HBO.Hit the jump to watch the trailer. The Girl airs on HBO on October 20th.Hereâs the synopsis for The Girl:
