Nylon has also played a significant role in film, particularly in the context of costume design. The use of nylon in film costumes has been extensive, with designers often opting for its durability and ease of care. In some cases, nylon has been used to create iconic characters, such as the villainous Nurse Ratched in the 1975 film "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest," who wore a pair of distinctive nylon stockings.
