It intrigues me that as time goes on, Jim Carrey will become better known for arty seriousness than for the box-office smash gurning that got him to the screen from late night talk show comic slots.
Like the opposite of Leslie Nielsen: a man now really only recognised for comedy, when he got his start in comedy by satirising his own serious roles in mainstream potboilers.
I only wish for the same for Adam Sandler, who made one film (Punch Drunk Love) that so completely changed who he could be that it might one day, maybe, perhaps, just possibly, correct the damage he did to western culture with Little Nicky. ;-)
