I was in New York that night watching in my apartment and made so much noise the doorman called and said, “I think the neighbors are worried about you.”

The doorman is very friendly and asks if there’s a party going on.

During his years as an actor in New York, Hackman palled around with Hoffman and another struggling actor, Robert Duvall, and worked a variety of jobs that included doorman and cab driver.

He would often relate the story of how he was spotted by a former drill sergeant outside a New York hotel while he was working as a doorman.

If you have serious cash to blow on a stupid or ridiculous experience, might I suggest ordering a $38,000 sweater and giving your doorman a one-of-a-kind price tag to gaze upon?
