Thank you for this great post. I will be sure to check out your blog more often.

Substantial performances from Jim Carrey as Steven and Ewan McGregor, (his best part and best performance in years), as Phillip go a long way to boost the film's credibility, not to mention its likability. Not that Steven is a particularly likable guy. Actually, if he moved in next door to me I think I would move house. At one point Steven's ex-wife, (yes, he's also gone down the heterosexual road as well), asks if the stealing and 'the gay thing' could be linked and while Steven would be the first to tell you he steals in order to keep up his gay lifestyle, his 'problems' are never explained or even explored in terms of his sexuality. His sexuality, the movie is telling us, is integral to his nature and has been since childhood. His hyperactive imagination and over-the-top personality are something else again. Gay or straight, Steven isn't someone I would want to know. Phillip, on the other hand, is sweetness personified and the voice of reason in Steven's world. Unfortunately it's a voice Steven doesn't seem to hear.
