 | | Hoffman, realizing there was no one else to pass the buck to, is quoted as saying "so I just started to tap dance. |
 | | Although he shot his first movie,Madigan's Million in 1966 (released in 1968), Hoffman first impressed 1960s audiences inThe Graduate (1967, earning his first Academy Award nomination), playing a disaffected, uncertain young man who drifts into a sexual affair with a woman in his parents' circle, only to fall in love with her daughter. |
 | | To ameliorate this perceived problem, Hoffman teamed with handsome young superstar Tom Cruise for his next film,Rain Man (1988), limning the character of an autistic savant with skill and integrity and earning another Best Actor Oscar in the process. |
