Notorious (1946) is a thriller directed and produced by Alfred Hitchcock, and starring Cary Grant and Ingrid Bergman as two people whose lives become intimately entangled during an espionage operation. The screenplay by Ben Hecht was based on a story written by Hitchcock, which in turn was based on a Saturday Evening Post story which Hitchcock had read many years before. In his book-length interview with François Truffaut, Hitchcock/Truffaut (New York: Simon and Schuster, 1967), Hitchcock claimed he was followed by the FBI for several months after he and Hecht discussed uranium with Robert Millikan at Caltech in mid-1945, before the Manhattan Project became public.
Claude Rains was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor, and Hecht was nominated for an Academy Award for Writing Original Screenplay. In 2006, the film was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress as being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant".
