Jim Carrey’s New Movie – ‘I Love you Phillip Morris – Gets Shelved

This is not good news for Jim Carrey.  His new film might go straight to DVD.  Carrey plays a gay con artist who falls in love with his cell mate, played by Ewen McGregor.  It was speculated that the film would have trouble with distribution because of an explicit gay sex scene, and this just confirms it.  Jim Carrey just cannot catch a break lately.  Most of his recent films have underperformed at the Box Office, and the public just won’t seem to let him transition into dramatic acting.  So far he’s tried ‘The Truman Show,’ ‘Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind,’ ‘The Majestic,’ ‘Man on the Moon,’ and ‘The Number 23.’  None of those films have even come close to his comedic box office success.  Maybe it’s time to throw in the towel and stick to what people want to see you in.
