Dean R. Brooks(1916-2013)

Incorrectly credited as "Dean R. Brooks" in Einer flog über das Kuckucksnest (1975) because he was known on the set by his nickname, "Deaner".

[on his role in agreeing to help make Einer flog über das Kuckucksnest (1975)] They wanted to make a movie where real people had lived and died. I was quite ready to say, 'Yes, let's do that, and do that here.' And we did... [But] It was possible that my whole professional career would go up in flames. The thing I worried about was that it would be taken as a documentary rather than as the allegory that it is.
