Тема: Джим Керри - талантливый комедиант и актер

Who is not fond of comedies? Rather a rhetorical question. It is so pleasant to lie in front of the screen with something tasty, laugh and enjoy a wonderful pastime. But who can you see on this screen? There are numerous comedians, but not all of them are both professional and talented at once. I know one comedian, whose passion for performances and a great inborn talent made him a Hollywood star and a celebrity and, of course, it is Jim Carrey.

Кто не любит комедии? Вопрос скорее риторический. Так приятно лежать перед экраном с чем-то вкусным, смеяться и наслаждаться прекрасным временем препровождения. Но кого же вы можете увидеть на этом экране? Есть многочисленные комики, но не все из них являются профессиональными и талантливыми одновременно. Я знаю одного комика, чья страсть к выступлениям и огромный врожденный талант сделали его звездой Голливуда и знаменитостью, и, конечно, это Джим Керри.

His early life was not very special. Born in Canada he was one of three children. His father worked as a homemaker, while his mother was a keen musician. When he was a child, he had to change several schools and then even leave one of them, as his mother has got a serious disease and Jim worked full-time in order to help to maintain the family.

Его ранняя жизнь была не очень особенной. Рожден в Канаде, он был одним из трех детей. Его отец ухаживал за домом, в то время как его мать была увлечена музыкой. Когда он был ребенком, ему пришлось поменять несколько школ, а затем даже оставить одну из них, так как его мать получила серьезное заболевание, и Джим работал полный рабочий день, чтобы помочь сохранить семью.

Since his school days he has always dreamt of becoming a comedian. His great desire has been supported by his father, who at first even took Jim to Toronto for the performance in one club. This effort was not rather successful, so the start of his career was put aside for some time. Several years have passed and, when his family gained stability, Jim started acting in regularly paid shows. Noticed by a performer Rodney Dangerfield, Jim started to open his tour as one of the stand-up comedians. This tour gave Jim some popularity and he got a chance to move to Hollywood and became a guest of some television comedy shows. He has always wanted to become a part of the movie industry and after numerous auditions he played in several low-budget movies. considered the breakthrough of his career.

С его школьных дней он всегда мечтал стать комиком. Его большое желание поддержал его отец, который сначала даже отвез Джима в Торонто для выступления в одном клубе. Эта работа не была достаточно успешной, поэтому начало его карьеры пришлось отложить на некоторое время. Прошло несколько лет, и, когда его семья стала стабильной, Джим начал участвовать в регулярно оплачиваемых шоу. После того, как исполнитель Родни Денжерфилд заметил его, Джим начал открывать его выступления в качестве одного из комиков. Этот тур предоставил Джиму некоторую популярность, и он получил шанс переехать в Голливуд и стал гостем телевизионных комедийных шоу. Он всегда хотел стать частью киноиндустрии, и после многочисленных прослушиваний он сыграл в нескольких малобюджетных фильмах. Комедийное шоу «В ярких красках» считается прорывом в его карьере.

But can it be compared to the real stardom and incredible popularity of the film Ace Ventura: Pet Detective (1994)? I think no one can deny its international success, as it supplied Jim with an enormous number of leading roles and opened the gates of the film industry for him. The Mask became another important step in his career as he was first nominated for the Golden Globe Award. His job was often acclaimed by different critics and due to the great box-office success of the films with his performance Jim became one of the most highly paid actors in the whole world. He received a great number of awards and worked with the most famous celebrities. There is hardly any person, who has not heard of such films as Bruce Almighty, Dumb and Dumber, How the Grinch Stole Christmas and many others. Jim managed to make them hits due to his professional and talented acting.

Но можно ли сравнить его с реальным началом звездной карьеры и невероятной популярности фильма Эйс Вентура: Розыск домашних животных (1994)? Я думаю, что никто не может отрицать его международный успех, так как он обеспечил Джима огромным количеством ведущих ролей и открыл ворота киноиндустрии для него. Маска стала еще одним важным шагом в его карьере, когда он был впервые номинирован на премию Золотой глобус. Его работу признали многие критики, и в связи с большим успехом кассовых фильмов с его исполнении, Джим стал одним из самых высокооплачиваемых актеров во всем мире. Он получил большое количество наград и работал с самыми известными знаменитостями. Навряд ли существует человек, который не слышал о таких фильмах, как Брюс Всемогущий, Тупой и еще тупее, Как Гринч украл Рождество и многие другие. Джим сумел сделать их хитами благодаря его профессиональной и талантливой актерской игре.

Apart from acting and performing Jim Carrey decided to create something for kids. So in 2013 he announced to have written and published a book for children with the title He created parody music videos and took part in many official events as a guest and a participant. His achievements were appreciated greatly, so it is not surprising that the Maharishi University of Management honoured him for being a gorgeous artist, comedian, author and philanthropist.

Помимо актерства и выступлений Джим Керри решил создать и что-то для детей. Так в 2013 году он объявил, что написал и издал книгу для детей с названием «Как Роланд катается». Он создал пародийные музыкальные видеоклипы и принимал участие во многих официальных мероприятиях в качестве гостя и участника. Его достижения были высоко оценены, поэтому не удивительно, что университет управления Махариши признал его великолепным художником, комиком, писателем и филантропом.

Followed by paparazzi he has never kept his private life in secret. He was married two times. His first wife was Melissa Womer. She was a waitress in the Comedy Store. They have been married for more than eight years and gave a birth to their daughter, Jane Carrey. , became his second wife, but not for a long time, as soon after one year of marriage life they divorced. Being a rational and reasonable person he has always avoided personal commitments, but it is very important for his second half to be intellectual and patient. Many people describe him as hot-tempered and quite aggressive, but no man is wise at all times. He is said to have romances with many much-publicized women including Lauren Holly, Charlotte Lewis, Renée Zellweger, Anastasiya Volochkova, Jenny McCarthy and Anastasia Vitkina. He changed his love affairs with actresses for relations with models and has never lacked women’s attention and admiration.

Преследуемый папарацци, он никогда не держал свою личную жизнь в тайне. Он был женат два раза. Его первой женой была Мелисса Вомер. Она была официанткой в Камеди Стор. Они были женаты более восьми лет и она родила ему дочь, Джейн Керри. Лорен Холли, с которой он познакомился на съемках фильма "Тупой и еще тупее", стала его второй женой, но отношения длились не долго, так как вскоре после одного года брака они развелись. Будучи рациональным и разумным человеком, он всегда избегал личных обязательств, но его второй половинке необходимо быть умной и терпеливой. Многие люди описывают его, как вспыльчивого и довольно агрессивного мужчину, но не бывает дыма без огня. Про него говорят, что он имел романы со многими публичными женщинами, включая Лорен Холли, Шарлотту Льюис, Рене Зельвегер, Анастасию Волочкову, Дженни Маккарти и Анастасию Виткину. Он поменял свои романы с актрисами на отношения с моделями, и никогда не нуждался во внимании и восхищении женщин.

His life has never been very sweet and easy, as prone to depression, he spent many years of recovering from it and nowadays avoids even coffee. Mostly playing losers and people with unusual destiny he is a father of a wonderful daughter, famous for appearing in the show American Idol, and at the age of 48 he even became a grandfather.

Его жизнь никогда не была очень сладкой и легкой, так как он имеет склонность к депрессиям, он провел много лет, восстанавливаясь от них, и в настоящее время избегает даже кофе. Играя в фильмах неудачников и людей с необычной судьбой, он отец замечательной дочери, известной за появление в шоу "Американский идол", и в возрасте 48 он даже стал дедушкой.

Personal Quotes (33)

I tend to stay up late, not because I"m partying but because it"s the only time of day when I"m alone and I don"t have to be on, performing.

I"ve been dubbed the man most responsible for the dumbing of America, so obviously I don"t put much stock into thoughts like (the theme of the "dumbing down" of contemporary comedy). People love to laugh, and most people can find humor in just about anything, which is great. Trying to label or categorize comedy is ridiculous. I mean, if you laugh at a fart joke, does that make you a moron? I don"t think so.

That"s the trouble with being me. At this point, nobody gives a damn what my problem is. I could literally have a tumor on the side of my head and they"d be like, "Yeah, big deal. I"d eat a tumor every morning for the kinda money you"re pulling down.

I"m charming, but I dip into the Prozac now and then.

I don"t believe in this fairy tale of staying together for ever. Ten years with somebody is enough. In ten years, you can give a lot of love.

I have no intention of giving up my Canadian heritage, and all those who loved and supported me. My upbringing in Canada made me the person I am. I will always be proud to be a Canadian.

Always turn your wheel in the direction of the skid.

The power of the subconscious mind! With the power of the sub-conscious mind I can learn how to do anything...I could...learn how to dance, or, yodel like an Austrian.

The best possible thing you can get out of a relationship is that you"re with somebody who encourages you to be the best version of yourself.

(1996, on choosing projects) Very rarely do I jump up and say on my own, "I must do this!" I have a lot of people who look at material and give me their opinions. It"s like the President-he doesn"t make a move without his aides, which is a smart way to be if you trust the opinions of the people on your team.

(1996, on $20 million paydays) See, the number in the paper is one thing, but then there"s 35 percent off the top for commissions, then there"s taxes, so the $20 million check becomes $5.5 million. That"s amazing money, but it"s not $20 million. Believe me, I don"t gloat about the money. People have lost fortunes that make mine look microscopic. You can never count on it for sure. People that do that are asking for trouble.

(1996) Money doesn"t faze me at all. It goes into an account and then I basically do what I need to do with it. The money takes a little of your fear away-you know, fear of the future. This country is pretty scary if you don"t build some kind of nest egg for yourself. I don"t go buy Maseratis, because I"ve never been impressed with stuff like that at all. I"ll probably end up with two houses, someplace to escape to and someplace in the city, I"m pretty basic. I understand the dynamic of people who medicate themselves with things, but it always seemed hollow to me.

(1996) I"m just a freak like the rest of us. I"d say I"ve had an even flow of neediness through my whole life, and I got kind of clever about it early. I remember starting out imitating records in the back of the classroom, and when the teacher singled me out and tried to make me feel embarrassed by saying, "Get up and do that in front of the whole class," it marked the end of all normal life. I got up, did it in front of the whole class and learned that committing myself to getting a reaction was very addicting. For sure, I have an unnatural need to be noticed or liked. But I don"t necessarily gear everything to an audience, going, "What are they going to want?", I"m not afraid to become a different thing, because I believe talent finds its audience. It"s just like The Beatles . They didn"t stay put. They changed, made a lot of enemies, lost fans, gained new ones.

(1996) I dyed my hair black just before I started shooting Cable Guy - Die Nervensäge (1996) and immediately got completely in the doldrums. I couldn"t lift myself out of it, because every time I looked in the mirror, I didn"t like myself. It definitely put me in a weird place.

Even if I am being over the top or crazy, I want to do something original. There is nothing that makes me happier than when someone says: "I watched Die Maske (1994) 300 times when I was a kid." I look forward to when I am 80 and people come up to me going: "It was you, dude." That"s an amazing feeling.

It is as if I am starting out every time I make a film. And I swear to you I don"t feel any more secure than I used to, or jaded in any way. There was a moment when I thought "I am not sure I want to be part of this big thing that is Hollywood." I looked at it cynically for a minute. Then I sat on my couch and realized the value of what I do. We free people from concern. It is what everyone needs in this day and age. There is nothing better and it started out that way.

I was always trying to make my mother laugh because she was sick or depressed or whatever. Many comics start out by trying to heal their family. That"s how you get good. Your drunken grandparents leave and you turn around as a seven-year-old child and imitate them. That is how it began for me, bringing comic relief to my family. It really is comic relief, people don"t just want to see it, they need it. I need it more than they do and that is why I am on this side of the camera because I am a really needy person.

(2001, on his first comedy show) My mother dressed me in a polyester suit, and I got booed off the stage, and I didn"t go back for two years. But then when I went back, I was gangbusters.

My focus is to forget the pain, mock the pain, reduce it.

I love the whole culture, obviously. You have the best musicians, the best poets. Great artists come out of Ireland.

These mass shootings and daily body counts are an invitation for us to become more civilized and to deal with our addiction and entitlement to violence. Not to shut our eyes and ears and scream at those with a different opinion than ours to "fuck off and go back to Canada".

So many of us chose our path out of fear disguised as practicality. My father could have been a great comedian, but he didn"t believe that was possible for him. So, he made a conservative choice and instead he got a job as an accountant. When I was 12 years old, he was let go from that safe job. Our family had to do whatever we could to survive. I learned many great lessons from my father, not the least of which is that you can fail at what you don"t want, so you might as well take a chance on doing what you love.

People might dismiss Jerry as someone who acted the fool. But the fool is not an idiot.The courage and freedom of the fool liberates us. The fool tells the truth while making fun of our arrogance and our conventional ideas. He shows us up for what we are, and that"s what Jerry did. He was a blessing.

It was a false alarm, but a real psychic warning. If we allow this one-man Gomorrah and his corrupt Republican congress to continue alienating the world, we are all headed for suffering beyond all imagination.

It"s not our World.

I grew up in Canada, OK. We have socialized medicine, and I am here to tell you that this bullshit line that you get on all the political shows from people, is that it"s a failure; the system is a failure in Canada. It is NOT a failure in Canada. I never waited for anything in my life, I chose my own doctors, my mother never paid for a prescription. It was fantastic. And I just got back from Vancouver, and I keep hearing this, "Canadians are so nice . . . Canadians are so nice." They can be nice because they have health care. Because they have a government that cares about them. It doesn"t say, "Sink or fucking swim pal, or you live in a box." There are certain people in our society that need to be taken care of. There are people without as many opportunities that need to be helped toward those opportunities. There are people who are sick. You shouldn"t have to lose your home because your mother got sick.

Whoever invented marriage was creepy as hell. It says "I love you so much that I"m going to get the government involved so you can"t leave".

James Eugene Carrey (born January 17, 1962) is an actor, comedian, writer and producer from Newmarket, Ontario, Canada. A born comedian, Carrey mailed his r?um?to The Carol Burnett Show when he was 10 years old. The teachers in Carrey"s high school gave him a few minutes at the end of each school day to do a stand-up routine for his classmates.

The Carrey family fell on hard times and were forced to move to Scarborough, a Toronto suburb, where they took security and janitorial jobs in the Titan Wheels factory. Carrey began working eight-hour shifts each day after school. Eventually, the Carrey family escaped life at Titan by living on a relative"s lawn out of the family Volkswagen van until they could move back downtown.

Carrey dropped out of high school, and began to work in comedy clubs and develop his act, which included impersonations of celebrities such as Michael Landon and James Stewart. In 1979 he moved to Los Angeles and started working in The Comedy Store, where he was noticed by comedian Rodney Dangerfield. Dangerfield liked Carrey"s act so much that he signed Carrey up to open Dangerfield"s tour performances.

Carrey began to work occasionally in television and small parts in movies, which eventually led to a friendship with Damon Wayans. Wayans"s brother, Keenen Ivory Wayans, was in the process of putting together a sketch comedy show for Fox called In Living Color, and hired Carrey to be a cast member. Carrey"s unusual characters and on-screen behavior caught America"s attention.

Carrey"s first starring role in a film was in Ace Ventura: Pet Detective (1994). Through the 1990s, Carrey released one highly successful film after another, including The Mask in 1994, Batman Forever in 1995, Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls in 1995, Liar Liar in 1997, and The Truman Show in 1998.

In 1999, Carrey fought hard for his next role as comedian Andy Kaufman in Man on the Moon. There were quite a few actors fighting for the role, including Edward Norton, but director Milos Forman and the other filmmakers knew Carrey was their "Andy" when they saw him audition. Carrey performed for them as Kaufman with Kaufman"s actual bongo drums.

Carrey"s manager is James Miller, younger brother of comedian Dennis Miller.

Carrey has won repeatedly nominations from the two major foreign press associations, with two Golden Satellite Award nominations and six nominations for Golden Globe Awards, winning two of the latter. He has been even more successful with MTV Movie Awards, with over 20 nominations and awards, some shared (as in the 1995 "Best Kiss" award shared with Lauren Holly). He has also been nominated three times for Saturn Awards.

He is an inductee of Canada"s Walk of Fame.
