Martin Short wanted the release of his documentary to go ahead to shine a spotlight on late daughter Katherine's "terminal" struggles with mental health issues.
The Only Murders in the Building is the subject of Lawrence Kasdan’s Netflix special Marty, Life Is Short and after his daughter took her own life in February at the age of 42, the director asked if he wanted the film to be delayed out of respect for Katherine, but Martin was keen to still go ahead with the planned May release.
