  6. https://www.aol.com/hollywood-legend-101-recalls-scandalous-190808863.html Eva Marie Saint turned 101 on July 4 and to celebrate, Remind Magazine resurfaced an interview she did a few years ago about her iconic 1959 thriller North by Northwest alongside 1950s heartthrob Cary Grant. In the interview, Saint talks about her intimate scene with Grant and what it was like working with director Alfred Hitchcock. When Hitchcock came calling for North By Northwest, Saint already had an Oscar to her name, but she said in the interview that MGM didn't want her for the leading role opposite Grant — they wanted Cyd Charisse. But Hitchcock fought for Saint. "Hitchcock wanted the ‘cool blonde.’ I remember saying to my husband, ‘Hitchcock sees me as a sexy spy lady!’ And my husband said, ‘So do I!’ He’s a director, so there I had the OK from Hitch and my husband!" said Saint, who was married to director Jeffrey Hayden from 1951 until his death in 2016. Hayden was a renowned TV director, helming episodes of such shows as Peyton Place, Quincy M.E., That Girl, Magnum P.I., In the Heat of the Night and dozens more classic shows. When Saint read the North by Northwest script, she recalled thinking "Oh, this would be really fun" to film and she went on to say that it definitely was. "We worked hard, but we had such a good time working with Hitch," said Saint, adding of the famed director, "His demeanor on the set and his relationship with the actors … the respect he showed [them] … he checked out everything … he was so prepared." She also said that the film was definitely a little scandalous for 1959 and coyly added, "But we kept our clothes on, didn't we?" North by Northwest was the only Hitchcock film that Saint would act in over her 8-decades-long career. It was also the only one she did with Grant. But she had plenty of other famous co-stars — Marlon Brando in On the Waterfront, for which she won her Oscar, Don Murray in A Hatful of Rain, for which she earned a Golden Globe nomination, and Montgomery Clift and Elizabeth Taylor in the Civil War romantic drama Raintree County.
