 | SZinHonshu (45) 02/26/2006 | The movie would not have been a fraction as "revered" as it is today had Robert Redford played Benjamin Braddock ... and that's no rap on Redford; he's a quality performer. It's just that that role (and the movie) was entirely defined by Hoffman's thoughtful/sensitive/unique performance. Redford could not have pulled off the "dorkiness" that Hoffman was able to convey.
