Personal Quote:

I pursued film because I thought this was the coolest job. I loved the idea of working with writers and musicians and photographers and actors at the same time. It sounds corny but the opportunity to work with Robert De Niro was a dream come true for me. I truly am happiest in a working environment where I can encourage and create surprises.[1988] See more »

Trivia:

Brest named Chaplin's City Lights (1931) as his all-time favorite film in an AFI-sponsored poll. See more »
