TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

Dustin Hoffman seriously studied the piano in his youth, but was not considered talented enough to make a career of it, just like his character Master Carvelle.

Days before filming in Texas, Garrett Wareing (Stet) broke his left arm in three places, shooting all of his scenes in a splint, and having it cast after filming wrapped.

According to extras on the set, namely members of the real Boychoir, Dustin Hoffman was horrendous at conducting in real life. So much so that a real conductor had to lay in front of him - off camera - and conduct the Boys properly. Apparently Mr. Hoffman has no rhythm.

A planned Spring 2016 broadcast of the film on CBS was cancelled at the last minute after a backlash from real-life former choirboys who were sexually abused at a private school similar to the one depicted in the movie.

Sissy Spacek was originally scheduled to play the role of Ms. Steel.

Popular Dialogues

"Master Carvelle: Your clock is ticking kid. Stet: Well your clock is ticking too old man."

"Stet: I hate Handel. Master Carvelle: Handel hated singers too."
