Dustin Hoffman: Hollywood's Antihero 1 review Jeff Lenburg
AuthorHouse, 2001
Basic info on Hoffman
This biography is not as much a biography as a review of interviews made to Hoffman and reviews of Hoffman's movies (too bad there isn't one single word from critic-guru Pauline Kael). In fact, I didn't see much research here, the author never gets in one single day in Dustin's life with phrases ...
