The biopic comedy relates the story of Andy Kaufman (Jim Carrey), a famous American entertainer, actor and performance artist who was able to stir any audience. An eccentric, extraordinary person and an enigmatic comedian, he gave bizarre performances making the audience empathize with him, hate him or wonder at his escapades. He made them show their emotions, as opposed to just sitting in front of a TV and swallowing cheap jokes. The movie takes a profound look at Kaufman's art as well as his personal life and his relationship with his girlfriend Lynne Margulies (Courtney Love), his best pal and partner Bob Zmuda (Paul Giamatti), and his manager George Shapiro (Danny DeVito).
