1. Don't you mean Jim Carrey's Andy Kaufman impression from "Man On The Moon"?

2. Jim Carrey went so scary deep into the part, I was troublingly confused through the entire film

3. I agree! I think it was his best performance

Really an outstanding job

And his portrayal of Tony Clifton was just sublime

5. Ha!

Thanks for that!

Tony Clifton was the best part of Man on the Moon, imo, including when he showed up on the set of "Taxi" with those 2 hookers.

7. LOL, Tony Clifton appeared because of contractual obligations

I got all turned around and bent because I saw Netflex's Jim & Andy: The Great Beyond - Featuring a Very Special, Contractually Obligated Mention of Tony Clifton, before I ever heard of The Man on The Moon.

Check out Jim's 2017 documentary on making the Man On The Moon; all the crazy stuff was happening on the set, behind the scenes.
