People participate in documentaries for all kinds of reasons.

Mayor Deegan: Dames Point Bridge has safeguards in place to prevent it from collapsing if it’s hit by a shipThis image released by Apple TV+ shows Steve Martin in a scene from the documentary"Steve! a Documentary in 2 Pieces." – Steve Martin has long marveled at the many phases of his life. There’s his youth as a Disneyland performer, surrounded by vaudeville performers and magicians. A decade as a stand-up before the sudden onset of stadium-sized popularity. An abrupt shift to movies.

“I’m going to say something very immodest: I have a modesty about my career,” Martin says, chuckling. “Just because you do a lot of things doesn’t mean they’re good. I know that time evaluates things. So there’s nothing for me to stand on to evaluate my efforts. But an outsider can make sense of it.”

“The first part, that’s what I really have a hard time watching," Martin says. “When I’m on black-and-white homemade video being so not funny.” “Then there are these moments that I think of as performance glory, but they last a minute or two minutes. It was all so new. It was exciting because it was new to the audience and to me.”

That makes Martin think of a joke that he and Short have considered for their act but thus far deemed too esoteric.
