Dustin Hoffman says man could learn how to preserve world peace by the following the example of dogs.
Hoffman says there would be less conflict if, like dogs, humans first sniffed each other out before deciding whether or not to fight.
Writing in the December issue of Playboy, The Graduate star says, "If a lot of dogs are on the beach, the first thing they do is smell each other's a***.
"The information that's gotten somehow makes pacifists out of all of them. I've thought, 'If only we smelled each other's a**, there wouldn't be any war.'"
Hoffman's latest movie, Meet The Fockers co-starring Robert DeNiro, Barbra Streisand and Ben Stiller, is due for release on January 28 in the UK.
He's a method actor, so his next role is undoubtedly that of a drooling imbecile.
Hoffman's line would have fit right into the F.A.G. actors' dialogue in Team America, and would have been considered one of the funniest lines in the movie.
The Hollywood types' capacity for unintentional self-satire never ceases to amaze me.
I'll be that "Meet The Fockers" movie goes nowhere!!!
If, just only if...
Much more appropriate....
Hey, what humans act like a pack of dogs, picking on their prey by attacking them from behind, in the dark, and rending them from the necks?
Old Dustin probably doesn't have a lot of experience with dogs. Dogs, like people, are perfectly capable of forming seemingly irrational hatreds of each other. Dogs, like people, sometimes transform into savage beasts if one of "their own" is attacked. Dogs, like people, can be trained to kill each other.
I one time watched (in horror) as a small terrier mix slipped his collar, crossed a busy street and slipped between two gate posts to "attack" my neighbor's red Dobie. As the owner screamed, the Dobie stood the mix off. Order was shortly restored but there goes your pacifist theory.
I really should have pinged you guys in earlier, but better late than never.
He's just plain f@(&ed in the head. A 100% write-off.
nothing stopping hoffman from licking your dog's ass.....
You neighbor's Doberman "held its own" against a small terrier?
"Hollywood's obsession with Ass continues..."
if they aren't acting like one, they are one.
LOL! I could have said that better. I meant that the Dobie barked and backed the terrier mix up against the fence but didn't bite the dog or injure it in any way. Of course both owners intervened within a minute or so.
Delusional Moron Alert!
Mr. Hoffman, your proctologist called. Your head is ready for use again.
I seem to remember TaRAYzahhhhh being quoted as saying "I'd like to be a dog....wouldn't you?" Go sniff THAT, Dustbin Hoffman, and pray that Ol' Rice-In-Butt doesn't knock your teeth out.
And rightly so.
