Dustin Hoffman to make directorial debut
May 18th, 2010 - 5:34 pm ICT by ANILondon, May 18 (ANI): Dustin Hoffman is set to make his directorial debut with new film ‘Quartet’.
The comedy will star Dame Maggie Smith, Albert Finney and Tom Courtenay.
“It’s a story about people, as he (Hoffman) puts it, in their third act,” the Mirror quoted the film’s producer Stewart Mackinnnon, as saying.
He added: “Although their faculties may be diminishing, their foibles, their flaws, passions for life are in no way reduced, so in that sense it’s a positive, life-affirming film.” (ANI)
