Steve Martin on beauty and girls
Steve Martin blabs to John Hiscock of the Telegraph as Shopgirl opens in the UK, pondering the small matter of beauty: "In times of crisis like Hurricane Katrina, beauty and the arts seem very insignificant, but in times of calm, they become very important to us and give us a kind of secular reason to live... Everybody has their own taste and what makes it all go round is there's somebody for everybody.
"I remember once I was in Texas doing a film with Liam Neeson. We were sharing a house, and we were going for a walk in the afternoon and two girls came walking by. "By the way, this was 20 years ago," he hurriedly adds. "I said to Liam, 'Wow, I thought that girl was so beautiful,' and he said, 'I liked the other one.'" Martin smiles and shrugs. "That's the way it works."
