Martin Bregman (May 18, 1931) is a film producer and former personal manager. Bregman produced many films including ''Scarface'', ''Sea of Love'', ''Venom'', ''Serpico'', ''Dog Day Afternoon'', ''The Four Seasons'', ''Betsy's Wedding'', ''Carlito's Way'', ''Carlito's Way: Rise to Power'', ''The Bone Collector'' and ''The Adventures of Pluto Nash''. ==Life and career== Bregman was born in New York City, to Leon and Ida. As a child, he suffered from polio. He began his career selling insurance and first got into the entertainment business as a night club agent. Building relationships with investors such as New York real estate magnate Lew Rudin, Bregman moved successfully into personal management, eventually representing such stars as Al Pacino, Woody Allen, Barbra Streisand, Faye Dunaway, Alan Alda and Bette Midler. Bregman discovered Pacino in an Off Broadway play, and helped to support the actor as he built his stage and then film career, among other things working to land Pacino the actor's first film role in 1971's ''Panic in Needle Park'', winning out over then unknown actor Robert De Niro.〔 Bregman ventured into film producing in 1973, building projects around Pacino, initially with the Sidney Lumet directed ''Serpico''. The film's acclaim set the path for many more highly acclaimed collaborations with Pacino, including ''Dog Day Afternoon'' in 1975, ''Scarface'' in 1983, and 1989's ''Sea of Love''. Beginning in 1979 with ''The Seduction of Joe Tynan'', and for most of the 1980s, Bregman enjoyed a successful run of films with writer/director Alan Alda. Their creative and business partnership yielded such well received films as ''The Four Seasons'' in 1981, ''Sweet Liberty'' in 1986, ''A New Life'' in 1988 and ''Betsy's Wedding'', in 1990. Other notable films include 1999's ''The Bone Collector'' with Denzel Washington and 2002's ''The Adventures of Pluto Nash'', starring Eddie Murphy, and notable mostly for its resounding box-office failure. Bregman has also produced two short-lived television shows, 1980's ''S *H *E'' and 1984's ''The Four Seasons'', with Alda, based on their film. Bregman lives in New York City and has two sons with former wife Elizabeth Driscoll, Christopher and film producer Michael (''Sea of Love'', Carlito's Way),"〔 and a daughter, singer Marissa Bregman, with his current wife, actress Cornelia (Sharpe) Bregman (''Serpico'', The Next Man, The Reincarnation of Peter Proud). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Martin Bregman」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
