Famous Names, Lost Interviews

Dustin Hoffman on Duplicity and Famosity *

By blankadmin

“I carried a knife taped to my leg. I never used it but it was there.” – Dustin Hoffman in 1971.

Listening to this interview tape from the Pacifica Radio Archives, we were drawn to this idea of the struggles that pop up between different generations and the internal questions one confronts as he or she gets older — and becomes famous.
