I\'m an aspiring actor, and let me tell you that regardless of how silly a part is, it\'s harder than it seems to act.
Especially Jim Carrey\'s parts. Lots of great physical comedy, and superb delivery.
Bob is right. The Truman Show, Man on the Moon, and several other "more serious" roles were notched in Carrey\'s belt before Eternal Sunshine. He\'s a great actor, funny and fun to watch.
