Cary Grant, Eva Marie Saint, Martin Landau & Lincoln’s nose in North by Northwest (1959, dir. Alfred Hitchcock)
“In North by Northwest during the scene on Mount Rushmore I wanted Cary Grant to hide in Abraham Lincoln’s nostril and then have a fit of sneezing. The Parks Commission of the Department of Interior was rather upset at this thought. I argued until one of their number asked me how I would like it if they had Lincoln play the scene in Cary Grant’s nose. I saw their point at once.”
-Alfred Hitchcock, 1965 (via Hitchcock on Hitchcock: Selected Writings and Interviews)
