      ​@@mrjones29 Exactly. When I saw that comment, my head whipped back. Martin gets a standing ovation here for just *walking on stage*! He's amazing. He spent over 15 years perfecting his comedy routine. His *only* routine. And when he nailed it, he stopped. I respect that so much. And he really did nail it. "Steve Martin Live" is one of the funniest, smartest, most unique performance I've ever seen. I wouldn't even call it comedy. It's Steve Martin. There is no other. [Holding gas pump he got at a garage sale] "I got this... for fiiiive bucks." [stands there, waits for the audience to see the absurdity of the total lack of use in this object he thinks he got a good deal on - it. is. brilliant.].
      Yeah. I guess I'm a fan.

      As far as I recall, Halle Berry won the Oscar in 2002 for her work in Monsters Ball (2001) and was presented her award by Russel Crowe who had won his Oscar the previous year (2001) for his performance in The Gladiator (2000). This monologue given by Steve Martin took place in the Academy Awards in 2003 where Halle Berry presented the award for Best Actor to Adrian Brody and was famously French-kissed by him as he got too emotional and surprised. Oscars 2003 were remarkable not just for the number and quality of female performers but also for the Iraq War which had caused a lot of controversy and tension in the ceremony.

  • @johncillis3431
    @johncillis3431 Год назад +4

    If I saw this monologue, I don't remember but anything Steve does, he does with such grace. I loved his performance in Cyrano--a high school poet and quite short, all I had to do to avoid bullies was be Cyrano for them and help them with Chemistry, not just with the cheerleaders, but with the Chem teacher, who was tough, lol.
    That was in '77-'79 when Steve Martin was just coming on the radar, like many of the performers he noted in this monologue. My career started in the Napa Valley, kind of a Hollywood North because of Falcon Crest, and Francis Ford Coppola, and working in the tourist industry there after college I met some of the people shown in this monologue, all earlier in their careers, and very humble and kind to those like me who were service workers, and the local residents of a community which stands at about 80,000 residents today.
    Now that I've just reached retirement, I look back to those times when great stars still shared by community members on this site. We first lived in Burbank after moving from Chicago in '66 and my middle brother was close friends with Richard "Jaws" Kiel, the Arnold Schwarzenegger of his time, who I last saw in the movie "Force Ten From Naverone". Barbara Bach, Ringo Starr's wife, shared a hug with me at Meadowood Resort in the Napa Valley when she stayed with us, though if Ringo was with her, he stayed in the Background. She was in "Force Ten From Naverone" and so humble, embarassing me, the desk supervisor, in front of the staff that worked with me.
    I never even dreamed I would meet Hollywood celebrities so early in my career, I chose tourism because I loved meeting people and I love traveling, just like them. They taught me how to manage any guest, because they were so humble themselves, that some, like Falcon Crest's Ana Alicia or the French Chef Julia Child, would chat with me asking for my tour recommendations if I was alone on shift, as I tended to schedule myself late in the evening.
