Somebody Please Check On Jim Carrey
My initial thought – and it’s my initial thought any time I see an even remotely interesting video on the internet, that’s the kind of jaded online cynicism I’ve built up through all these years – was that Jim Carrey was promoting a new movie. And that the E! woman was in on it of course. A few more hours into Fashion Week and a teaser trailer would leak out of Jim Carrey going the Daniel Day Lewis method acting route to play a former comedy genius who has lost all grip on reality.
And that could all still be true, but I think right now I’m leaning towards the “lost all grip on reality” without the movie part. Just Jim Carrey slowly descending into madness. Rambling on and on like a college kid who just tried acid for the first time and had a freshman into to Philosophy class earlier that afternoon.
*Reads about existentialism once*
“I don’t believe in personalities. I don’t believe that you exist. But there’s a wonderful fragrance in the air. I believe we’re a field of energy dancing for itself”
Pass me some of that good shit.
PS,
Carrey’s always been in the “Tom Cruise” category for me – I’ll do whatever it takes to separate their real life human being personas with their movies. Anti-vaxxer who allegedly gave his suicidal girlfriend STDs makes that pretty hard to do, admittedly.
This catalogue though…
