DUSTIN HOFFMAN— 85 YEARS OLD

Dustin Hoffman, who is known for his antiheroes portrayals and emotionally unstable characters, was first critically praised for his credit role in the play, Eh? From which play he was able to gain a Theatre World Award and a Drama Desk Award. In 1967 he got his first breakthrough film credit role as Benjamin Braddock in the critically acclaimed and iconic film, The Graduate. It was at this time that he took flight and focused more on the cinematic side of his career with occasional comebacks on television and on the stage.

Dustin Hoffman is a perfectionist, so he often quarrels with the director and is criticized as not compatible enough. However, it also enables him to win two Oscar best actor awards for his starring in Kramer vs. Kramer (1979) and Rain Man (1988). At present, in addition to performing films, Dustin Hoffman has also transformed into a director. His first film directed is the 2012 Quartet, and he has his own film production company Punch Productions.
