    I just rewatched it and based on his caliber as an actor, I can see why, at face value, folks might not see this as a top performance for him BUT knowing that this was over 2 decades ago when no leading role had been "monster make up" since The Fly, Jim being able to provide a performance that was engaging for kids is truly a testament to his stamina as a performer and I think he did rely on a lot of muscles/skills he honed doing standup and I think that's why the performance is the way it is. I know that had this film been attempted with our current updates to special effects make up and such - speed and conform wise - Jim might then have been able to give a more layered performance. But damn, I can see why he would never want to do a project like that again.

    Thank you, Jim. The Grinch movie was the first Christmas present I ever remember asking for and receiving, and I got it from my beloved grandmother who soon after passed away. I grew up watching it so often that I now likely know most of the dialogue. It's an incredibly nostalgic movie, and I'm so grateful that you stuck through it all for us.

      Awww, lovely! What I like is how different he is in those roles. I know my dad wouldn't have 'got' Ace Ventura, but he loved the Mask, with it's song and dance routines (despite being more OTT) - he was like 'who's this guy?!'
      My personal favourite comedy role was the Riddler, he could have just done camp there, but he added so much more to it.

    Even the makeup artist quit during filming. He sought mental health therapy. He knew how painful it was for Jim and it destroyed him seeing Carrey pretty much dread sitting through application, see the shift into madness over it, and know he was part of the cause and he helpless in it. He only came back after Carrey received training and Ron Howard agreed to help him with his green card. The movie was brutal for both of Carrey and his makeup team.

      People only ever see the glamorous side of it- the premiers, rich lifestyle, the popularity, but not the actual work. Big blockbuster actors work around the clock.
      I recently got into acting in my local community theatre and found out just how much energy a good performance actually requires, even in just a normal costume, so I can’t imagine the energy and patience it took to pull this role off- the caricatured acting style whilst being buried alive in a costume and make up that took 8 hours to apply every day.
