How does one learn to become a film producer? Steve Starkey followed a circuitous and rather unlikely path that started with no job prospects or film-related experience and eventually led to working alongside some of the most influential directors of his generation, including George Lucas, Steven Spielberg, and Robert Zemeckis. A witty and engaging storyteller, Starkey recounts how he broke into the film business by sneaking onto the lot at Universal Studios, landing his first job as an electrician doing set lighting. Entertaining and enlightening, Breaking & Entering is a book about taking risks, being resourceful, working hard, working harder, and pursuing a dream. It's a book for anyone who ever sat through a movie and wondered how in the world could I get a job as a film producer.
