In 1967, a 30-year-old Dustin Hoffman had his breakthrough role in the romantic comedy The Graduate, a film that earned the actor his first Oscar nomination.

Over the next several years, Hoffman appeared in classic films like All the President’s Men (1976) and 1979’s Kramer vs. Kramer, where he took home an Academy Award for Best Actor.

In 1983, the California-born actor starred in the film Tootsie, where he played a washed-up actor who dresses up as a woman to land a role on a soap opera.

The hit film, where in drag he was called a “nottie” instead of a “hottie,” brought him to tears, he said.

“If I was going to be a woman, I would want to be as beautiful as possible, and they said to me, ‘That’s as good as it gets. Uh, that’s as beautiful as we can get you,’” Hoffman recalled in an interview.
