Andy Kaufman is difficult to understand

Rating: Null/10 (26 June 2000)

I rented this movie because I thought it would be funny, but it seemed to be more of a dramatic documentary to me. I never saw any of Andy Kaufman's skits or roles, so I don't know how true to history the movie is. Assuming the movie is accurate, people would have to be mature and informed of Kaufman's style of humour before they could appreciate it. Jim Carrey portrayed him as an eccentric person who was struggling with crowds who wanted him to be funny in a way different than he wanted to be.
