The Billing on the Poster


Interesting:

Dustin Hoffman all alone at the top.
The great Laurence Oliver one level down..sharing his row with the only recently minted star Roy Scheider(because of Jaws)
William Devane and Marthe Keller -- newbies -- on the low rung.

That Dustin Hoffman sure had a lot of power in 1976.

PS. Marathon Man producer Robert Evans said that Dustin Hoffman ALONE cost more than the three stars of Evans' next production, Black Sunday(Marthe Keller, again, plus another Jaws star in Robert Shaw, plus the never-quite-made-it Bruce Dern.)
