Beyond the Great—Jin Carrey

I can no longer use words to describe how I feel after watching this documentary.

Jim said he was lying on the bed thinking and thinking, and finally came up with the way other people like him-a carefree person who doesn't care about anything. So he became that person behind him, with slender limbs, handsome face, Jim's temperament and face. I doubt that any actor can surpass him. He always looks innocent and free, devoted and vain, and the corners of his mouth remain the same. Keeping the arc of laughter but not laughter is too accustomed to become natural.

His speeches at the actor studio and graduation ceremony all started with a set of clown-like performances to make everyone laugh. All his hard skills have been honed for decades, and he can use his legs as a guitar. .

But he couldn't hide it in the later period, he really couldn't hide it, no matter how good his skill was, he couldn't hide his confusion, and he began to doubt the meaning of being someone else. He is the kid who always wants to make others laugh. But he is also a person who is entangled to death by his own confusion. Such entanglement is painful, so he wants to escape-this reminds me to a certain extent of Ralph Finnes, who is also a person who cannot leave the stage and the role. , Is also a person who can't find his own personality in life, but dismembered himself in the role he played.

But there is a fundamental difference between Jim and Ralph. Ralph must have found a way to coexist with confusion when he was alone, but Jim did not. He always left after a play. Andy left, and Jim returned immediately. Gasping, the confusion and pain pressing on him immediately took over his body and soul.

He is really depressing-unable to find himself, unable to be himself.

I very much doubt what makes him need to bow his head to reality so far. Of course, childhood poverty, the early death of his father, the death of his girlfriend, and his own "paradigm dependence" of being a pistachio, as well as the whole world he obtained Favorite.

He is really liked by the whole world.

But that is not necessarily him, he is more than that.

Jim’s life will not only give him pain without leaving him with things that he can chew repeatedly and make up his soul. These things have been suppressed by the pistachio soul. I think at that time Jim was scared and he was confused. The doting life with him made him lead a life of "dual personality".

He took the role of Kaufman at the top, and he was curious about people like Kaufman who really didn't care about anything.

What will it be like? being a careless person?

He realized this when he was beating wrestlers and performing casually on stage-it turned out that what Kaufman had been dealing with was everyone’s confusion, the manager’s disappointment, and even the killing, and of course love. His audience.

Fortunately, the head bag of the crew is really warm and touching.

In the end, Jim became a god. He was no longer confused or afraid. The self recovered through painting and meditation left his eyes with only a little hesitation and childish show-off and pride—just work harder. As soon as Shen Ying is introverted, he will soon be able to "being presence" without any affirmation or appreciation, without any slander and slander.

He has said about his attachment to absence and the desire to disappear, but his soul is left behind piece by piece through these paintings, and he is about to do that without attachment.

"We all have roles. In the past, we thought that doing a good job in this role is everything, so we will firmly grasp this role, but in fact, it's everything when you step out of that door."

Beyond great-For Jim Carrey.

Jim & Andy: The Great Beyond quotes

  • Jim Carrey: I've stepped through the door, and the door is the realization that this, us, is Seaside. Its the dome, this is the dome. This isn't real. This is a story. There is the avatar you create, and the cadence you come up with, that is pleasing to people, and takes them away from their issues, and it makes you popular, and then at some point you have to peel it away. And, you know, it's not who you are. At some point you have to live, you know, your true man. You know Truman Show really became a prophecy for me. It is constantly reaffirming itself as a teaching almost, as a real representation of what I've gone through in my career, and what everyone goes through when they create themselves, you know, to be popular or successful. And it's not just show business. It's Wall Street, it's anywhere. You go to the office and you put a monkey suit on, and you act a certain way, say a certain thing, and lie through your teeth at times, and you do whatever you need to do to look like a winner, you know. And at some point of your life, you have to go, "I don't care what it looks like." You know, "I found the hole in the psyche and I'm going through, and I'm going to face the abyss of not knowing whether that's gonna be okay with everybody or not," you know. And at times, just like the movie, they try to drown you in the middle of that abyss. They go, "No, be the other guy. You told us you were this guy. You told us you were Andy. You told us you were Tony Clifton." You know, no one can live with that forever.
