HEY, DON'T I KNOW YOU?
Look closely at this picture. It shows something you have never seen before: DUSTIN HOFFMAN and GENE HACKMAN occupying the same piece of celluloid. Although the two wily veterans were roommates way back in their struggling-actor days, they have never shared the big screen. Runaway Jury, a legal thriller that opens Oct. 17, will be their first co-starring gig. "Gene's always had the ability to be extremely, almost criminally, honest and natural in his work," says Hoffman. Says Hackman: "Dustin takes big chances, a big bite out of something, which I love." Well, now he does. Probably it was different back when they shared a fridge.
