Quotes:
  • If you look at yourself as a star, you've already lost something in the portrayal of any human being.
  • It really costs me a lot emotionally to watch myself on-screen. I think of myself, and feel like I'm quite young, and then I look at this old man with the baggy chins and the tired eyes and the receding hairline and all that. - on aging
  • If I start to become a star, I'll lose contact with the normal guys I play best.
  • I was trained to be an actor, not a star. I was trained to play roles, not to deal with fame and agents and lawyers and the press.

  • As roommates, Dustin Hoffman and Hackman would often go to the apartment rooftop and play the drums. Hoffman played the bongo drums while Hackman played the conga drums.

  • Met actor Dustin Hoffman in the first month at Pasadena Playhouse. Had several classes with him.
  • Appeared on "Larry King Live" (1985) on July 7th, 2004. Larry King was surprised to find out that Hackman had no movies lined up, and Hackman replied by saying that he thinks it is the end of his career.
  • Even though he is not a smoker, he played the role of a chain-smoker man in the movie Heartbreakers (2001). He was using a special kind of cigarettes that only gives heavy smoke without actually smoking.
