A life in front of the camera
Jim Carrey has spent 45 of his 60 years on stage or in front of the camera. At the age of 15 he appeared in front of a large audience as a comedian for the first time before he devoted himself to acting. His breakthrough came in the mid-1990s with slapstick films like “Ace Ventura”, “Dumb and Dumber” or “The Mask”. For his exceptionally serious role in the drama “The Truman Show” (1999) and a year later for “The Moon Man” Carrey received a Golden Globe for “Best Actor”.
