The Man on Lincoln's Nose is a 2000 American short documentary film directed by Daniel Raim about Hollywood art director Robert F. Boyle. It was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Documentary Short.[1] The title is derived from the Alfred Hitchcock film North by Northwest (1959), which has a climactic scene of two characters dangling from the carving of Abraham Lincoln's face on Mount Rushmore. One of the producers was Hitchcock's daughter, Patricia Hitchcock.
