Dumb & Dumber


 

Dumb and Dumber is a 1994 comedy film starring Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels. It was written and directed by The Farrelly Brothers. It is a modern example of slapstick comedy and gross-out humor. Some of its' most controversial scenes include the imbibing of urine, a dream sequence in which a man's privates get repeatedly punched and later bitten and another man's heart gets pulled out of his body, and a scene in which one of the main characters has painful and violent diarrhea. Thus the movie has received much criticism. Since its release, the film has become what many consider a comedy classic and the source of countless humorous quotes. Dumb & Dumber contributed to the launch to stardom of Jim Carrey and set the foundation for many Farrelly Brothers films yet to come.

Main characters

  • Lloyd Christmas is an illiterate, good-hearted man who has apparently been fired from several jobs due to his lack of intelligence. The most recent of which is working for a limo company. He falls in love with Mary while driving her to the airport and is destined to track her down and spend his future with her. He, along with Harry, is the main protagonist.
  • Harry Dunne is a dog groomer, and best friend to Lloyd. What he lacks in common sense, he makes up for by being a superior linguist to Lloyd. He, along with Lloyd, plans to open up his own pet store to specialize in selling worm farms. The store is tentatively named "I Got Worms".
  • Mary Swanson is an attractive lady whose husband has been kidnapped by a family friend. She is the object of Lloyd and Harry's longing.
