Jim Carrey is one of the most famous comedians of the past two decades. Was born in Canada. He began his acting career as a stand-up comedian. The first roles of the actor were episodic and almost invisible to a wide audience. However, over time, the fame of the films with Jim Carrey spread throughout the world.
Jim Carrey became very popular in the film Ace Ventura, in which he played the main role of a detective on the search for pets, and also acted as a co-writer of the script. The grotesque humor and incredible mimic abilities of Kerry (the “rubber face” man) finally drew the attention of the general public, the very picture about the detective of the missing animals became very famous.
The success of his next film, The Mask (Academy Award for Special Effects), cemented Carrie's status as the # 1 comedian and brought him worldwide fame. This was followed by the sequel "Ace Ventura: Call of Nature" and the tough film in terms of humor (the so-called "toilet") by the Farelli brothers "Dumb and Dumber".
It is worth noting that in the work of the comedian there was a period when the latter changes his role and tries himself as an actor of "serious roles". Films such as The Truman Show, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and The Man in the Moon received favorable reviews from the critical community and allowed the actor to claim the highest awards in cinema, recognizing Kerry's obvious talent, but to some extent alienated some fans who did not want to see their favorite comedian with a serious face.
We must pay tribute, Kerry is great at combining a serious actor and a first-class comedian. "Bruce Almighty", "Liar-Liar", "The Cable Guy", "Me, Me and Irene", "Fun with Dick and Jane", "Always Say" Yes "- comedy films that are still watched today. although many of them are more than ten years old from the moment they appeared on the screen.
