New Generation of AK fans

Rating: 10/10 (22 December 1999)

(I tend to give away small parts of movies but i'll be careful) I like to think that I am a funny guy. I know that Andy Kaufman was a funny guy. However, I was born in 1982 and being that he "died" in 1984, I of course never got to see him live etc. However, any time I even hear the mention of AK on Commedy Central etc. I perk up. Like I said, I am a funny guy and honestly a lot of what I do comedy wise I ripped from AK. This movie gave me a chance to see probably the funniest guy ever.
What really got me about this movie is its ability to make me laugh so hard people stared at me funny and to almost get me to cry (im macho -- I dont really cry). I mean when they instantly swith the _____ scene I just about lost it.
AK liked his audience to get real emotions -- whatever they were. This movie did that for me.
Also -- the beginning of the movie has to be one of the funniest things I have ever seen.
Finally -- I have always assumed Andy was dead. Now I really wonder.
