Key Performances:

  Jim Carrey

Movie Haiku:We did not know that much about Andy Kaufman going in, so we simply enjoyed this masterful portrait of an enigma. Jim Carrey perfectly captures someone you both love and hate simultaneously. His performance keeps you constantly off-balance, and the final ironies are brilliantly played out.
