Honorary Oscar to master art director Robert Boyle
Indeed, many people, maybe even most people, don’t understand what art direction is. Really, all you need to know to understand that Boyle deserves this award is that he was Hitchcock’s regular man.
True, looking at his mockup of Mount Rushmore from “North by Northwest” does the trick too. Well done, Mr. Boyle, and congratulations.

His work is such an inspiration, and I’m so pleased that such a treasure is still around.
