Martins humor is not for the audiences looking for comfort comedy, there I said it.

Martin is a genius at the setup, his art transcends simple laughs. King Tut is an example of his genius. Roxanne is a movie that dare you not to laugh because he challenges all the stigma of comedy. He challenges you to use gray matter.

Most importantly you go away entertained after experiencing Mr. Martins offerings- most of the time- you may not have soiled your pants but for so me of us the light bulb moment is more valuable.

Thank you for your article because you reminded me of so many hilarious Steve Martin moments that had been stored away in my brain.

I wonder how you feel about Andy Kaufman minus his most well known character in Taxi - raw Andy.
