Sound Bite: Dustin Hoffman – Have you seen a lot of these movies?

(talking) Which is (talking) Is that what it’s called cause I don’t even know, no I don’t. (talking) No, I haven’t I swear I haven’t uhm by the time I, we have six kids, uh by the time uh the last one left the house, she’s 20 a few years ago uh this stuff wasn’t coming up when they were little, you know.

Sound Bite: Dustin Hoffman – They film you when you are in the booth right?
It’s not really a booth, it’s just room, they’re they’re in a booth you look at you know beyond the glass they’re in a sound proof room the director, the producer, and the writers and you just have a mic and they direct you in way that I found offensive. (talking) And so I got used to it, I, you have to put yourself in their hands, but you feel like a beginning actor with those first acting classes when the teachers didn’t really know what they were doing. Say it again and emphasize this word, say it louder, say it softer, you know what I’m saying, and you say you know geez I can’t work this way and they say okay do it your way and you don’t know how to do it because it’s it’s you know it’s all being thought up as they, they have the script but it’s in a sense an outline that they are constantly changing. So you say to yourself I am going to put myself in their hands and I’m going to do the best I can and I had uh with the caviet, with the agreement that I can do over what I want to if I you know, I heard that Mike Meyers had re-done Shrek after he saw it. And I was surprised at how little I had to do. (talking) Yeah they know their stuff. These guys uh that did this film.
