Jim Carrey is more routinely known for his comedic value in movies. Perhaps even not seen often as a serious actor but more a screw up and a goofball. This movie in my personal opinion shows exactly how diverse of an actor he is and is capable of being.
Peter is a writer. He is believed to have communist ties. Due to this he becomes blacklisted and is pending an investigation as no one in the movie business wants a communist in their employ. He thinks this is totally absurd and after packing his office he and his stuffed monkey friend go to the bar for a few drinks. After spilling his guts to the bartender he leaves. Definitely not in any condition to be driving but he does so anyway. He will swerve to miss hitting a possum causing his car to go over the bridge. He will escape the car but hit his head giving him amnesia.
He washes up on a beach. He awakens to a dog licking his face. The kindly gentleman and his dog help him into town where they in their hearts missing their boys who have gone off to war and returned in body bags want to believe he is one of theirs returned home. They think he is Luke. Luke disappeared almost 10 years prior and was presumed dead.
He knows nothing else to be true but cannot seem to recall anything as people try to help him recover his memory. We learn that Luke was a heck of a boy and well loved by this community. Before long he fits right in to this small community and is helping the man he believes to be his father rebuild a movie theater to raise the spirits of the town.
Eventually he will regain his memory. What it leads us to wonder of course is this: Who will be hurt in the truth? Will this now seen as a war hero be convicted of being a communist? What of this small town that really thought he was their dead soldier?
An amazing must see film even if you hate Jim Carrey.
In IMVU my mind went to colorful and festive. Mardi Gras of course! Here is how it turned out:
