‘Marty, Life Is Short’ Applauds The Power Of Laughter Therapy

‘Marty, Life Is Short’ Applauds The Power Of Laughter Therapy

Netflix documentary Marty, Life Is Short, directed by Lawrence Kasdan, retraces Martin Short’s art and career across film, television, theatre and comedy.

The Canadian actor — who gained prominence for his roles in sketch comedy before exploring film sets and Broadway stages — has lived what one would consider a full life. He was surrounded by love since his childhood. His family cultivated his self-esteem: everyone cheered this fifth kid, who would entertain the entire family with his “attic performances” at the age of 5. Later on, he would pass on this warm heartedness to his wife and three children.

What's your opinion that Erika Toda plays a fortune-teller Kazuko Hosoki?

I personally think she gave a career-defining performance.

If Italy has Wanna Marchi as the controversial figure of fortune telemarketing — portrayed in the Netflix miniseries Fortune Seller: A TV Scam — Japan’s self-made, con fortune teller is embodied by Kazuko Hosoki, depicted in the fictional Netflix series Straight To Hell.

The compelling production — directed by Tomoyuki Takimoto and Norichika Oba — chronicles the story of a war child who made it to success, through hard work, resilience and at times unscrupulousness. She is the one who coined the term “You’ll go to hell!” This infernal warning applies also to her own downward spiral, that is the leitmotiv across all the episodes of the series retracing her highs and lows.
