Jun 12, 2016 · As I was admiring the proportions of this architectural wonder, I started thinking about another unforgettable house embedded in rocks – The Vandamm House from North by Northwest. From the beginning Hitchcock wanted North By Northwest to show the trappings of wealth, power and prestige.
The Vandamm house in Alfred Hitchcock’s “North by Northwest” is one of the most iconic houses in cinematic history. This sleek modern house atop Mt. Rushmore served as the base of operations for the film’s villain, Vandamm (played by James Mason).
The house of silkily villainous Phillip Vandamm (James Mason), supposedly ‘169 Baywood, Glen Cove’, where Thornhill is force-fed bourbon by creepy Leonard (Martin Landau), is the redbrick mansion at Old Westbury Gardens, 71 Old Westbury Road, the Phipps Estate, a few miles south of the real Glen Cove, Long Island.
Location filming for North by Northwest took place between late August and mid-September 1958. With the exception of the crop duster sequence, location filming was shot chronologically: New York City, then Chicago and finally Rapid City, South Dakota where some of the Mount Rushmore daytime scenes were filmed.
