Review of Jim & Andy: The Great Beyond (2017) by Liamexe — 06 Dec 2022

This is a brilliant, stimulating, and in a sense desperate portrait of a (not so young anymore) artist who lost and, perhaps again, found themselves in the most impossible-to-us mortals situations of identity lost, disintegrated, and then miraculously found and reinvented again.

Perhaps to some, it won't be as profound as it appears (and wants, I guess). Jim Carrey is the best example of the "comedy man edition" after Peter Sellers and Jerry Lewis. He is quick to take on the role of another man, depressed enough to act as though his life depended on it (this is so similar to Sellers), otherworldly in his improvisation, and simultaneously terribly heartbreaking.

If you consider yourself to be one of his biggest supporters.
