I met tony clifton at the chiller theatre fest in NJ.. Drinks Gentleman Jack.. whiskey.. He's not the guy in the movie ..He's is brilliant though Mike Jersey
I remember watching this film when it came out in the cinema before this i didnt know kaufman was a stand up comic i slightly remembered him in taxi. Carrey did a great performance of clifton.
@talons74 And no one would have enjoyed their dissatisfaction more than Andy himself. His stunts were ground-breaking then, and really, still have no equal today. Closest thing is perhaps the Yes Men.
i saw just this scene on tv or something back in highschool and years later i for whatever reason i remembered it and just started laughing and i was trying to tell my friends about it but no one knew what i was talking about so after doing some research i found it and got a few of my buddies together and we watched it and we all thought it was hilarious. that was a couple years ago and to this day we still say lines from it like "i know all the tricks" or "fuck you im not going!"
@extacy336 hahaha! i had a similar story! my friend and i saw this movie in the theater and it was packed but we were the only ones laughing our heads off in the entire theater! everyone else was dead silent during the funny parts! so now he and i still laugh our heads off at scenes from this movie and throw lines back and forth!
It is always staggering when a talent that is obviously known elsewhere, nails a character but because he or she is gay, disabled, tutoring someone who is gay, disabled etc isn't given an Oscar nod, Carey should have had one. As did Rourke instead of Penn who should have got one for Carlito's Way. The mind boggles but the Hollywood purse and inbred scheming doesn't.
@Moolafoo Agreed 100% bro. This is why the Oscars are completely irrelevant now. They pick shitty, low rent indie films that NOBODY ever sees, and the reward the same group of circle jerks with nominations year after year.
Jim Carey did an AMAZING job on portraying Andy Kaufman/Tony Clifton... I saw the movie on AMC a few days ago....Seeing the movie, I had to do some research on Andy....Jim nailed it
did you notice the smoke ring he blew at 1:08? hah! I wish Jim Carrey would make "The Tony Clifton Story" The screenplay is online and it's hilarious:)
GOD DAMN I PAID 10 BUX FOR THAT CIGAR!!! .. "now.. mr. entertainment... tony clifton.." lol he's fricken smoking. Genius. GENIUS. Listen to that voice. GENIUS
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Horrible. What an ASSHOLE CHARACTER.
Nothing whatsoever redeeming about Tony Clifton.
The only thing that would have been funnier than hell would have been if Kaufmann had made a sketch of Clifton being shot in the face by a disgruntled patron.
This has to be the most underrated films with Jim Carey in it, most people just don't get it but it's a million times funnier then any of his other movies in my opinion!
@genevaslab u r not alone... i saw it in the theatre and me and a friend of mine literally were the ONLY 2 pple in the theatre that "got it"...i could not STOP laughing throughout the entire flick... it's classic.... i grew up with Taxi in the background on the tv set all the time ... but i was just a kid... this movie is amazing !!!!
ROFL LOVE THIS PART I got the wings of a dove i got "music shuts up" chicken wings... ...........where your fun yayayaa YA YA YAYAYAYA!! whoa! someones wearing alot of perfume down here MUST be the time f the month..ya i know the tricks Lol
I guess I can say Tony Clifton is the only entertainer that makes me laugh hard..I think Andy(or Bob) was going for something between Leon Redbone and a professional wrestler
lol.......thank you Mr. De Vito and Mr. Forman for this great movie. I didn't know anything about Andy Kaufman before. Now I can watch him here on youtube whenever I want. Thanks jellecamps for this high quality video......Vooooooooooooooolare..:)
if you haven't seen the whole movie you should do that, specialy the begining, when He want everybody to leave cos "This is End Of Da Movie" I'm Not Joking" Tony Rules, great acting by Jim!!!Love This Film and the Song Volare!!!

this is piss poor clifton..... its only funny to people that have seen man in the moon, wich is funny dont get me wrong, but its nothing like clifton was. nothing like andy himself did nor bob or micheal. they all had a style, non of wich was represented in the film. one of jims finest moments but in no way what clifton represented. 5 stars all the same i loved the film. i cant not cry when he knows he is going to die. i still hope he will jump back as clifton and reclaim the belt
