I love both these movies, with a slight preference for the Hitchcock film.

I am not a fan of Dustin Hoffman, with the sole exception of his performance in "Tootsie", which was comedy genius, just wonderful. Interesting how perhaps his best-loved character was the one who would have put him in touch with his feminine side.

Well, Hoffman said that the Dorothy Michaels helped him get in touch with his feminine side and helped him to become more sensitive and in touch. I am just referring to what he himself has said.

Hoffman was a revelation in Tootsie and a lot of that I feel would be to do with his own persona. If he wasn’t in touch with his feminine side, he wouldn’t have been able to transform Dorothy Michaels into the wonderful creature she was.

I had a friend who thought Hoffman was hot. I remember him referencing "Marathon Man" in particular.
I like him okay, but even though "Midnight Cowboy" is one of my favorite movies, I thought he kind of overdid his Rico Rizzo. What a name. Jon Voight makes the movie for me. I love Joe Buck for so many reasons.
