Jim and Andy: The Great Beyond.

Absolutely fascinating. A few comments:

1. Spellbinding to see how deeply Carrey immersed himself into "Man on the Moon" and how be simply became Kaufman. I don't even consider it acting in hindsight.

2. The way he stayed in character behind the scenes and not only pissed off, but actually scared others working on the movie, was nuts.

3. Worried about Carrey based on the 2017 interview footage. I really hope we're not on the brink of another Robin Williams.

4. The scene where he tells his girlfriend, manager, and others that he has cancer, and in return they all laugh at him thinking he's just being "Andy", and then when they finally realize he's being honest, was pretty ****ing heavy.

See this. It's free on Netflix.
