Hitchcock Bust

2003_9_hitchstatue.jpg

A huge bust of Alfred Hitchcock was unveiled at Gainsbourough Studios in England, to celebrate the director and his work at the studio where some of his early films were made. Gothamist loves the sentiment, but is it just us or does he look more like an wider, wooden version of an Easter Island statue?

That's director Anthony Minghella standing on the right; we can thank him for bringing together Jude and Nicole, Renee and Jack White.

Absolutely beautiful.

Reminds me of an Olmec head... and that red! Wow.

Thanks!

There's a good North by Northwest joke here, I'm sure.
