Steve Martin created a style that has been aped by thousands of comics. Yet not one of them gets the point, nor do they elicit laughter or thought in a manner on par with Mr. Martin.
Read Born Standing Up, his account of his life in stand-up, and you will further understand The Master.
There are no others.
I love Steve Martin. He's one of my favorites too; especially in movies like Father of the Bride and Parenthood. The only one I didn't really like was the one with Goldie Hawn
