Histoire
Le saviez-vous
- AnecdotesA man impersonating Gary Oldman discussed the project with an unsuspecting Danny DeVito for months and even submitted an audition tape to Milos Forman. The real Gary Oldman had passed on the role of Andy Kaufman months earlier, and became aware of the scam after he found his name listed as one of the actors auditioning for the part.
- GaffesAndy is playing a Ms. Pac-Man (1982) arcade machine, when George tells him that the producers of Taxi (1978) agreed to his terms. That's three years before the game came out.
- Citations
George Shapiro: Andy, you have to look inside and ask this question: who are you trying to entertain - the audience or yourself?
- Crédits fousThe credits lists Tony Clifton as himself. Tony Clifton was a character created by Andy Kaufman, and was portrayed by Andy or Bob Zmuda in real life (and by Jim Carrey in the movie).
- Versions alternativesSeveral scenes were shot but cut. These include:
- The cast of Taxi rehearsing with a stand-in substituting for Andy.
- Andy responding to fan mail from some attractive girls.
- Andy taking a girl out on a date and acting so weird she asks to go home.
- After the Tony Clifton fiasco on the Taxi set, Andy calling Ed Weinberger and thanking him for playing along so convincingly.
- A scene backstage after Andy "hurts" his neck at the wrestling match where his worried parents come to see if he is okay.
- A scene towards the end of the movie at the Improv Club where Andy resurrects his Foreign Man routine and is "heckled" by Zmuda posing as an audience member.

Commentaire à la une
Jim Carrey delivers on of the greatest acting achievements of the nineties in this stunning biopic about the legendary comedian Andy Kaufman (the man on the moon, according to REM). For me as a European citizen, Andy Kaufman is a complete mystery. I've never seen any of his performances in Saturday Night Live nor have I ever seen any of his live shows. After seeing the movie five times, I as a Dutch not-knowing citizen who had never heard of Kaufman before, can make an image of the man and his brilliance. This is all thanks to Milos Forman and a stunning Jim Carrey, who really becomes Andy Kaufman. According to me, this movie is where Jim Carrey proves that he is just more than a funny guy, and after seeing him in Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004) Carrey has really proved that he is in fact a character actor.
