Dustin Hoffman says cinema worst its been in 50 yrs..
The actor criticized the pressure on directors to have shorter film shoots, saying that "right now, television is the best that's it ever been."
Two-time Oscar winner Dustin Hoffman criticized the current state of cinema, saying it's at the lowest point it has been in the half a century that he has been working.
"I think right now, television is the best that it's ever been, and I think it's the worst that film has ever been - in the 50 years that I've been doing it, it's the worst,- he said in an interview with U.K. newspaper The Independent.
Hoffman's cinematic issues appear to stem from the increasing financial demands on directors to complete their films more quickly, pressures he says weren't there when he first started out in the industry.
