Poorman’s 15 Minutes of Fame: Brad Krevoy (Film Producer & CEO of Motion Picture Corporation of America)

“[On producing the 1994 comedy, Dumb and Dumber] The number of people who turned us down and said, you know, if I were you, I wouldn’t get involved with that script. It’s so lowbrow, you know, you’re gonna lose all your money, it’s gonna be a nightmare, and you’ll never be able to recover. And, you know, it just goes to show, you stick with your guns sometimes and good things will happen. You know, of course, Peter and Bobby Farrelly are some of the best filmmakers ever produced in America. You know, Pete went on to win the Academy Award for the Green Book. I don’t know if you saw that movie, but it was super great. Incredible. You guys, they made Something About Mary, another classic great comedy, and they made so many others. They’re super, super talented and I’m glad to call them my friends.” —Brad Krevoy, Film Producer & CEO of Motion Picture Corporation of America
