Jim Carrey‘s favorite movie came out in 1976 and maintains a “Certified Fresh” score on Rotten Tomatoes, and its tone is far from what you would expect. Carrey is best known for his slapstick, physical comedy, but don’t let that fool you. The actor is an artist at heart, and though he is best known for over-the-top characters like Ace Ventura, Lloyd Christmas, Ernie “Chip” Douglas, and more, he’s pulled out some stunning dramatic roles as well. His performances have balanced comedy with intellectual drama, and his number-one favorite film reflects this back perfectly.
