Was there something in the Perrier during the filming of “Father of the Bride”? The 1991 film seemed like a pleasant family comedy at the time, but evidence suggests it compromised the creative instincts of its stars. Once two of the most likable and intelligent movie actors around, Steve Martin and Diane Keaton descended to making such pap as “Because I Said So” (she), “Cheaper By the Dozen” (he), and “Father of the Bride Part II” (both of them). Now Mr. Martin, whose excellent new memoir, “Born Standing Up,” chronicles his electric 1970s comedy career, is filming “Pink Panther II” while Ms. Keaton is starring in the new comedy “Mad Money.” The curse continues.
