James Mason but not Jack Warden for "The Verdict" (1982). The same footage inspired Jhabvala to write the Merchant Ivory Productions drama Autobiography of a Princess (1975), starring James Mason and Madhur Jaffrey. The mountain's primary visual association--aside from souvenir postcards--remains its role as the climactic setting for Alfred Hitchcock's 1959 thriller North by Northwest, and there will always be visitors who come to look at Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln, and Teddy Roosevelt but can't help seeing Gary Grant, Eva Marie Saint, James Mason, and Martin Landau instead. |
