Martin Brest (born August 8, 1951) is an American film director, screenwriter, and producer. After his feature debut, Going in Style (1979), he directed the action comedies Beverly Hills Cop (1984) and Midnight Run (1988), which were critical and commercial hits.
Brest then directed Scent of a Woman (1992), starring Al Pacino, who won the Academy Award for Best Actor for his performance. He followed it with Meet Joe Black (1998), which received mixed reviews. Brest's next film was Gigli (2003). After disagreements between Brest and Revolution Studios,[1] creative control was taken from him, resulting in a radically re-written and re-shot version of the original film being released,[2] which became his first and only non-profitable film[3] and, in fact, a major box office bomb, receiving scathing reviews. It remains his most recent film to date.
