Dustin Hoffman tells Fresh Air’s Terry Gross about getting visibly teary when his friend Robert De Niro presented him with the Kennedy Center Honor in December:

What hit me — and it hit me very hard — … [was] De Niro is announced, he comes out on the stage and he starts talking about me and I realized, ‘Oh, I guess I’m first up,’ and … I’ve known him for years and we’re very good friends. I think we’ve always felt there’s like a brotherhood between us … but, you know, actors don’t talk to each other about acting … but suddenly, in this speech he gave, what he said about me he had never said and it just got me, his feelings toward me as an actor and I called him the next day … and I told him over the phone how deeply it hit me and he said to me mid-conversation, ‘Dustin, stop, he says, you’re making me cry,’ and even talking about it now, that was the highest moment for me, with all due respect to the President and the First Lady.”
