Just finished JIM AND ANDY. Amazing, incredible...a true journey to the dedication of a man and his craft.

Jim Carrey is a true genius.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.
