Shopgirl by Steve Martin

ah schucks · 07-08-2005, 01:57 PM

If you ever thought of Steve Martin as a loud mouthed narcissistic comedian who got his start at Disneyland- then you've never experienced the Steve Martin present in his writing. The accomplished actor, comedian and spokesperson for our very own 50th- is also a brilliant modern writer and satirist. His recent book, "Pleasure of My Company" was a soft, subtle look into the mind of someone who suffers from obsessive compulsive disorder. Previously he has written a few award winning plays but his first book, "Shopgirl" is coming to the big screen. I really encourage you to experience his writing and invite you to preview the film trailer.

I've loooong loved Steve Martin for his mind and his writing. LA Story is still one of my favorite movies. He's a wonderful satirist!!

Shopgirl was a very good little book. I can NOT wait for the movie....has many of my favorite actors in it.....and when I read it, I pictured Steve as the older savior guy. Perfect casting, I think. I love Jason Schwartzman.
