Best Steve Martin Movie? [View all]
Last edited Thu Jun 11, 2015, 03:51 PM - Edit history (1)
He was great in Carl Reiner's "The Jerk" (Martin co-wrote The Jerk)
He was great with Charles Grodin in "The Lonely Guy"
He was great with Martin Short and Chevy Chase in "Three Amigos"
(He wrote and co-produced Three Amigos)
He was great in the Carl Reiner directed spoof of 1940s private eye thrillers:
"Dead men Don't Wear Plaid" (Martin co-wrote it)
He was great with Kathleen Turner in "The Man With two Brains" (Martin co-wrote it)
He was absolutely brilliant in "The Jerk" (Martin co-wrote it)
He was great with John Candy in "Planes, Trains and Automobiles"
He was great with Michael Caine in "Dirty Rotten Scoundrels"
He was great with Rick Moranis in "My Blue Heaven"
He was outstanding, (IMO) in "Leap of Faith", with Debra Winger, Liam Neesan & Lolita Davidovich.
Other great Steve Martin films include:
Pennies From Heaven, All of Me, Little Shop of Horrors, Roxanne, Parenthood, L.A. Story, Father of the Bride, Sgt. Bilko, Cheaper by the Dozen, (the 2006 version of) The Pink Panther, and The Out of Towners.
I have three favorites:
The Jerk
My Blue Heaven
Leap of Faith
How the hell can you pick just one?
I'll go with "Leap of Faith", because it shows what a talented actor he really is.
