The hit film, where in drag he was being 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.
When he heard that he wasn’t very pretty, the now 86-year-old man had an epiphany, forever changing how he treats women.
“I went home and started crying,” Hoffman says. “I think I’m an interesting woman, when I look at myself on-screen, and I know that if I met myself at a party I would never talk to that character because she doesn’t fulfill, physically, the demands that we’re brought up to think women have to have in order for us to ask them out.”

He adds: “…that was never a comedy for me.”
