I remember reading that people said he was one of those difficult method actors, and so on, but that still surprised me. I guess we (or me, anyway) underestimate the permissiveness of the industry, especially back then.

 

I read about this a few months ago - claims that he was awful to Meryl Streep.

I wasn't sure how known it was, so maybe they didn't - apparently the Olivia Munn stuff was, as I saw that a few days ago Marni Noxon was trashing him on Twitter about that. 

 

(on another note, Noxon's Twitter says "I ruined Buffy," which made me laugh)

Now I know why, when Meryl Streep played "Marry, Shag, Kill" with Andy Cohen on WWHL, she said she would "kill" Dustin Hoffman.

 

More than one industry professional has spoken about how...irritating Hoffman can be on a movie set.  (I still feel pangs of sadness over how he treated poor, ill Sir Laurence Olivier on the set of "Marathon Man.")  Nevertheless, it stuns me to know he, too, has had a history of denigrating women sexually.
