One of those squishy rubbery dolls where you squeeze its middle and the eyes and tongue pop out?

Obama endeavors to startle the child by doing an impression of Peter Lorre:

This leads to some bewilderment among the courtiers of the media, who momentarily forget to cackle and guffaw.

In Hitchcock's Secret Agent "the General" played by Lorre pushes the wrong man off an Alp, later 'redeems' self by stabbing the 'bad guy', played by Robert Young, allowing Ashenden (Gielgud) and 'the blonde' (Madeleine Garroll, very delicious) to swear off spying (until next time) as too violent and mug into the wind machine as film ends. Two stars.
