Dustin Hoffman (Dustin Hoffman)

Hoffman is hardly a non-profit actor: many films with his participation to make huge fees as a wide box office and on video. But here there is the very case, when the money for the artist is not an end in itself, but only paid (and not always adequate) it is truly Herculean effort. The variety and difficulty of the goals for which Hoffman eagerly taken, admired - as well as his talent and hard work, allowing these problems to solve

. He played and actor in the role of women, feminists, . and autistic, . and cheerful idiot, . and consumptive Mexican - "prostitute", . and a great comedian - a spectrum of carefully modeled the characters he is unusually wide, does not even believe, . that behind all these masks hiding the one and only Dustin Hoffman,
. Not to recall an episode of "American Graffiti" when his hero producer argued that he was "the best tomatoes on our television". Indeed, if Hofmann instructed to play a tomato, its a vegetable, of course, would become the best in the world.

But early in his career in theatrical studio Pasadena, he (a couple with a friend) was recognized as the most unpromising pupil. Ironically, but it was another friend is now a prominent Hollywood actor Gene Hackman.

. Now, . in its 65 years, . Hoffman has 2 Oscar (and 5 nominations), . 6 "Golden Globes" (and 6 nominations), . 3 awards and 5 nominations for the prize of BAFTA (British Academy), . Honorary awards for Lifetime Achievement in Venice and Berlin film festivals (where, . is known, . Hollywood is not very zhaluyut) - the list goes on.,

. But enough praise Dustin Hoffman - he does not need
. Better still time to revise one of his film and applaud the genius of this transformation.
