What Kind of Sophistry is this? - Man on the Moon - Jim Carey/Andy Kaufman





That Jim Carey, he's awesome said some, but by the end of the movie even lovable Jim Carey was just too damn weird. I enjoyed it thoroughly. It seemed to me that Andy Kaufman's entire schtick was to bleed real life onto the stage and the stage into real life.

By the end we're left wondering if everyone is a crisis actor in a hair brained scheme that has gone totally right or wrong, depending on your point of view.
