Carrey or Kaufman? I'm confused?

Rating: 9/10 (20 January 2002)

What a movie? Thoroughly entertaining and what an insight into the life of a comedian-entertainer. Having viewed most of Jim Carrey's movies one can only wonder whether he's actually a clone of Kaufman in real life? Could he, like Kaufman, be yet another extremely talented comedian-entertainer who is often maligned and ignored by the 'Hollywood set' because of his excessively eccentric behavior. (Carrey has yet to be nominated for an Oscar, despite inspirational and amazing acting like in this movie) Watch the movie and try to see the analogies and you make the decision. Thoroughly worth watching. De Vito shines as usually in a supportive role.
