• Bob Weinstein
  Robert "Bob" Weinstein (born October 18, 1954) is an American film and theatre producer, the founder and head of Dimension Films, former co-chairman of Miramax Films, and current head, with his brother Harvey Weinstein, of The Weinstein Company.
  Weinstein and his brother, Harvey, are of Jewish heritage.
  After graduating from college, Bob, along with his brother Harvey Weinstein, independently produced rock concerts as Harvey & Corky Productions in Buffalo through most of the 1970s. Both Weinstein brothers had grown up with a passion for movies and they nurtured a desire to enter the film industry. In the late 1970s, using profits from their concert promotion business, the brothers created a small independent film distribution company called Miramax, named after their parents - Miriam and Max. The company's first releases were primarily music-oriented concert films such as Paul McCartney's Rockshow. In the early 1980s Miramax acquired the rights to two British films of benefit shows filmed for human rights organization Amnesty International. Working closely with Martin Lewis the producer of the original films, the Weinstein brothers edited the two films into one movie tailored for the American market. The resulting film was released as The Secret Policeman's Other Ball in May 1982 and it became Miramax's first hit. The movie raised considerable sums for Amnesty International and was credited by Amnesty with having helped to raise its profile in the US.

  Samuel Franklin Levine (aka "Samm the Ma'am", "Lil' Wolverine") (born March 12, 1982) is an American television and film actor. He is known for his portrayal of Neal Schweiber on NBC's short-lived Freaks and Geeks and PFC Hirschberg in the hit 2009 film Inglourious Basterds. Samm has said that Quentin Tarantino was a fan of Freaks and Geeks and used it as a way of introducing himself to the director, which was instrumental in getting the role in Inglourious Basterds.
  Levine was born in Chicago, Illinois, but raised in Fort Lee, New Jersey. His father is a dentist (just like the father of his character, Neal Schweiber, in Freaks and Geeks). Levine is the youngest member of the New York Friars' Club. He added an extra 'M' to his name because his actors guild already had a listing for a "Sam Levine".
  Levine was cast as a character in the sixth and final season of ABC's Lost only as a small role that was written for him by the Lost co-creator Damon Lindelof. Lindelof has apparently for the last six years been saying, 'I'm going to write you something on the show'. He was then cast as a clerk in the twelfth episode called "Everybody Loves Hugo."
