the best movie i've ever seen.

Rating: 10/10 (12 May 2006)

i never knew who Kaufman was. now i wish i had. this movie started out pretty slow. it was Jim Carey, doing a stupid voice that sounds like something i would do when i was around 10. then rolls the end credits, and i wonder if this movie is worth watching. 10 seconds of black screen later, i'm left in the dark, and wonder if this will be another 2001: a space odyssey trial of patience where fast forward becomes a blessing. and then things starts to happened. things goes a bit slow at first, but after a while, i'm twisting with laughter! Kaufman's way of building up expectation, and surprise is epical! seeing how he fooled everything around him, weaving them into his web of surreality opens your mind to how humans can fool themselves into believing almost anything. when the scene with his death came along, i did something i haven't done in 10 years with sincerity. i shed 2 tears, knowing that this fantastic person had died, at an age of 35. if you want to put this into perspective, know that i won't shed a single tear when my mother, or grandmother dies.
