11 Great F*ck You Performances From Hated Actors

4. Jim Carrey – The Truman Show

Better known as the bankable comedic star with the rubbery face thanks to roles in films like Ace Ventura: Pet Detective, Dumb and Dumber and Liar Liar, Jim Carrey surprised us all when he proved he had skills beyond slapstick comedy and gurning in Peter Weir’s satirical comedy-drama The Truman Show as unwitting reality TV star Truman Burbank.

Though he’s returned to his comedy roots many a time since, The Truman Show no doubt opened up his appeal as an actor of enough depth to star in meatier roles in films like the brilliant Man on the Moon as late comedian Andy Kaufman and the Michel Gondry directed melancholic mindf*ck Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.
