  • HACKMAN & HOFFMAN:
    FORMER ROOMATES NOW HOLLYWOOD LEGENDS
    (2003 - 2006 / Betelgeuse - In The Moment - Fox / 21 mins. total)
    First meeting as aspiring young actors at California's Pasadena Playhouse in 1956, Gene Hackman and Dustin Hoffman would venture to New York, room together during lean times, then individually go on to become two of the most respected performers in cinema history. Oddly enough however, they'd never work together in film for decades till 2003's John Grisham adaptation RUNAWAY JURY.
    We celebrate the lifelong friendship of the acting titans with a double-shot reminiscence including (in Pt. 1) their respective comments during individual appearances on TV's INSIDE THE ACTORS STUDIO, then (in Pt. 2), the duo's behind-the-scenes rehearsal and performance of their first (and to date ONLY) on screen pairing - as opposing lawyers in RUNAWAY JURY's key character confrontation sequence.

    One if the finest actor's around. Gene's portrayal as Popeye Doyle in the French Connection was superb and flawless he is Popeye Doyle. Gene projects a certain intensity it's magical, it can be compared to somebody attempting to climb Mount Everest no matter what obstacles are thrown in the way they are going to reach the summit. Want to wish Gene a happy long and healthy life.👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

    The nice thing about this video is how Gene Hackman seemed genuinely happy and relaxed when he was with Dustin Hoffman, both on the set and off it. You can see the comfort he felt in working/being interviewed with an old friend vs. being on his own. I've read a lot of interviews with him where he talked about being intrinsically shy (which a lot of actors are) and even the director here said he was a quiet kind of guy, so that tracks.

    They needn't had worried. One of the best scenes in the whole movie from two great actors at the top of their game. Often you get heavyweights put together in a film just because of who they are but their scene(s) don't really serve the film, doesn't help move the narrative forward and/or it was executed poorly. Not here. Hoffman and Hackman sold a very engaging scene that held the viewers attention with proper meaty dialogue amidst a sharp philosophical and moral debate.

    In my mind, Hackman always had a masculine presence on screen. Nothing glamorous about him and yet something possibly irresistible to women. Unfortunately, Hollywood has revealed itself to be the stuff of the most twisted and criminal sewage, stuff that would shock to the bones Satan Himself if He existed, and I want and would like to believe that Gene left that shithole because he could no longer stand the massive stench of it, doing it at a time even before the recent overarching revelations concerning all the sickly sadistic "adrenochrome" crimes committed by major numbers of so many Hollywood monsters that should long ago have been serving time in the most angry and revengeful of Hells.
