Growing up in Los Angeles, Oscar-winning documentarian Morgan Neville was a “huge fan” of Steve Martin. At 12 years old, he begged his father to drive six hours to Las Vegas so they could see one of Martin’s last stand-up performances at the Riviera Hotel.
Forty-five years later, Neville shared the NeueHouse Hollywood stage with his comedy hero to promote their new Apple TV+ documentary “Steve! (Martin): A documentary in Two Pieces.”
“My main goal going in was just to listen,” Neville said. “We just talked in the beginning and I recorded conversations with no agenda. Then slowly, shape started to come out of that and I started to think about what a story could be.”
