The film made stars out of both Carrey and Diaz and allowed audiences to see witness Carrey's unforgettable talent for physical comedy. His new confidence and charm allows him to grab the attention of Tina (Cameron Diaz), a nightclub singer, but he also falls into some troubles that get him noticed by a vengeful crime boss, who makes it his mission to destroy Ipkiss’ alter-ego. Once he puts on the mask, his entire life changes and he suddenly becomes a playboy with supernatural powers. The story follows a timid bank clerk called Stanley Ipkiss (Jim Carrey) who stumbles across a mask possessed by the spirit of the Norse god Loki. That film, still beloved today by audiences of all ages, is The Mask. However, in between these two films, Carrey starred in a surprise hit that had everybody talking. Later that same year, the classic comedy Dumb and Dumber came out. After years of grinding away on the comedy club circuit and doing sketch shows, he finally saw his break with the release of Ace Ventura: Pet Detective. 1994 was the year that changed Jim Carrey’s life.
