Contrasting Opinions #2: According to
Dustin Hoffman
himself, the taxi incident *wasnt* scripted. During an L.A. Times interview in Jan. 2009, he said that the movie didnt have a permit to close down the NYC street for filming, so they had to set-up the scene with a hidden camera in a van driving down the street, and remote microphones for the actors. After 15 takes, it was finally going well, but this time, as they crossed the street, a taxi ran a red light. Hoffman wanted to say "Hey, were SHOOTING here!", not only from fear of his life, but also from anger that the taxi driver might have ruined the take. Instead, being the professional that he is, he stayed in character and shouted "Hey, were WALKING here!" and made movie history.
Jon Voight
also backs up this version of the incident, saying that seeing how well Hoffman was handling the situation, he likewise stayed in character.
d.
Lauren Bacall
s character, Schatze, says, "Ive always liked older men... Look at that old fellow whats-his-name in
The African Queen
. Absolutely crazy about him." She is referring to Bacalls real-life husband,
Humphrey Bogart
