Jim Carrey does an uncanny and eerie impersonation of quirky actor-comedian Andy Kaufman in this revealing biography directed by Milos Forman. Carrey is a revelation as he slides into Kaufman’s most famous and infamous creations: “Tenk you beddy much” Foreign Man, who evolved into Latka on “Taxi”; lounge-singer Tony Clifton; and Andy the Wrestler., Comedian Andy Kaufman gave performances that were bizarre and difficult to categorize, in which he might do or say almost anything: show cartoons, impersonate Elvis Presley, play conga drums while singing children’s songs, read aloud from The Great Gatsby, or take the audience out for milk and cookies. Written by Scott Alexander and Larry Karaszewski and directed by Milos Forman (the team behind The People vs. Larry Flynt (1996)), this biopic takes an in-depth look at Kaufman’s life and art, with Jim Carrey as Kaufman, who could (and would) be any number of different people onstage: the quiet and childlike man, the little foreign guy, the overbearing showbiz “professional,” the violently obnoxious wrestler, or the world’s worst lounge singer. As Kaufman rose from comedy clubs to guest appearances on Saturday Night Live and a spot on the TV sitcom Taxi, his performances became more complex and dangerous — so much so that when word got out in 1984 that he was suffering from lung cancer, many fans and associates thought it was just another bizarre stunt; the disease took his life later that year. Man on the Moon features Danny De Vito as Kaufman’s manager George Shapiro, Courtney Love as his girlfriend Lynne Margulies, Paul Giamatti as his friend Bob Zmuda, and David Letterman, Judd Hirsch, Marilu Henner, Carol Kane, and Christopher Lloyd as themselves., Biopic of controversial comedian Andy Kaufman, starring Jim Carrey.

He acknowledged that he didn’t know what was funny or not, and his material could generate laughs and tears, silence and brawls., Andy Kaufman was possibly the strangest comedian America has ever seen. He’d take the audience, in pre-booked coaches, off for milk and cookies. He took up wrestling women to prove men’s superiority. He could be the world’s worst singer or a weird foreigner (a persona he was to take to the comedy hit Taxi ). And he died aged 35 from cancer. Milos Forman’s bio-pic stars Jim Carrey in the lead role, with a stellar cast including Danny De Vito as his manager, Courtney Love as his girlfriend and Paul Giamatti as his friend and collaborator in the extraordinary story of an extraordinary man who pushed comedy to its limits.
