A Tribute to Martin Short, Leading Man - a podcast by Back Row

You know who's underrated as an actor? Martin Short. Not all comedians are able to jump the hurdle into Serious Actor, and arguably Martin Short never truly succeeded financially in that sense, but his amazing comedic sensibilities mixed with his sincerity sure make for an interesting watch. Or at least we think so.In this episode of Notes From the Back Row, Dan and Jenna team up to watch what Martin Short himself called his "leading man years" – a string of movie roles that set him up to become the next big thing in cinema and never really went anywhere big. Come for the nostalgia of Three Amigos, stay for his '80s-tastic romantic sex comedy.

The following films are discussed: Three Amigos (1986), Innerspace (1987), Cross My Heart (1987), Three Fugitives (1989), Captain Ron (1992), Jiminy Glick in Lalawood (2004)
