I'll be reviewing this nomination. I've already done a first-pass through the article and it looks good, but I'll follow up here with my findings over the next day or two. —Bruce1ee^talk 07:46, 17 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Overall this is a nicely written article, it's clear, well-sourced and gives a good coverage of the subject. Some minor points:

I've done a little punctuation copyediting. There were a couple of instances of missing close quote marks, and I fixed some "quotes within quotes" problems (see MOS:QUOTE).

In the "Background" section, first sentence, Donald Spoto's book Spellbound by Beauty should be dated. It is dated in the lead section, but the lead summarises the body of the article.
- Done.
In the "Ratings" section, I think "Boxing Day" should be linked, it's only observed in Commonwealth nations, and for clarity, I think the date (26 December 2012) should also be added.
- Done.
Have you considered added a couple of pictures to the article? For example File:Hitchcock, Alfred 02.jpg and File:Alfred Hitchcock's The Birds Trailer - Tippi.png (I can't find any free pictures of Miller from this film). It's just a thought and not a GA requirement.
- Done.

Thanks for the review, and for correcting the punctuation. I've made the changes suggested and added the images. Let me know if anything else needs doing. Cheers Paul MacDermott (talk) 13:56, 17 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your quick response and the updates. I've promoted the article – well done! —Bruce1ee^talk 15:23, 17 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
