United Nations in popular culture

  • ... that The Interpreter was the first film allowed to shoot inside the United Nations because UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan was convinced by director Sydney Pollack in 30 minutes? Source: "Pollack sought permission to film his new project, The Interpreter, on U.N. premises. No movie had ever been shot there, not even Alfred Hitchcock’s North by Northwest." [...] "By the end of the 30-minute meeting, Annan gave the green light." [1]
