The Majestic
Jim Carrey plays an amnesia victim who, mistaken as a missing, favourite-son war hero by a tiny California town, restores and reopens the local abandoned movie palace discovering love and rebuilding his own life along the way.
The film is an homage to old-fashioned values and proud-to-be-an-American patriotism, studded with rock-solid performances not just by Carrey, but by film veterans Martin Landau, Hal Holbrook, and Ron Rifkin, among others. Listen as well for cameo voice overs by Garry Marshall, Matt Damon, and Carl and Rob Reiner.

Cliché-ridden drama of the triumph of small-town values that is in stark contrast to the realities of Hollywood's blacklisting.

Jim Carrey is Hollywood's biggest banking box office star, US cinema operators announced yesterday. The manic Canadian comic topped the annual poll - conducted every year since 1932 - in which cinema operators were asked which star's movies had netted them the most cash. Carrey's big hit of 2003 was Bruce Almighty - the tale of a frustrated news reporter who is given the powers of God for a week.
