Topic 10 Jim Carrey

This time I will introduce a slightly different type of actor, Jim Carrey. I have introduced 9 actors so far in my blog posts, but I think Jim Carrey's type is different from them, because his movies are mostly comedy movies. Probably you think so too. So we have an image that he is a little strange, but actually it's mistake.

Jim Carrey
Jim Carrey was born in Ontario, Canada in 1962. He is 52 now. In 1994, he appeared in the movie "The Mask" and he had a chance to become famous as a comedy actor. It's a good comedy movie and it was a very important career step for him. And he has a nice personality, so he is in favor of regulation of guns, and he posted a video that made a sardonic remark to the people who oppose the regulation of guns on the Internet. He showed off a song "Cold Dead Hand" with American rockband Eels in the video. He is not always a playful person like the roles of some of his movies.

My favorite Jim Carrey movie

I like some Jim Carrey comedy movies. Of course they are very amusing movies, I want to recommend all of his comedy movies, but especially I want you to watch a peculiarly interesting movie,  "Yes Man." This movie is based on a book written by an English author. Jim Carrey acted the part of a man who is depressed and always says "No." One day, he attends a dubious seminar and he is challenged to answer "Yes" for any question. The movie's story depicts the changes in his life. It's my favorite one, so please check it out.
