    What lovely people! Jim Carrey can talk about being successful so quickly and straightforwardly, yet not sound conceited or arrogant at all.
    And the interviewer is concerned about genuinely listening, and maintaining silence for Jim to explore more of what he wants to say. Not a "show", but an actual interview ❤.

    Brian Linehan, the intense and talented interviewer, was a very well known Canadian interviewer from the 70' - 90's. He was famous for being well prepared and researching his subjects lives so thoroughly many were left baffled, unsettled but ultimately flattered. His in depth interviews which rejected tabloid or sensationlistic journalism resonated with all the celebrities he encountered which earned him their respect and loyalty. Somewhere in the 90's he lost almost all his personal contact information for the people he had interviewed and found it increasingly difficult to track them down. This hurt his career which slowed down considerably in the mid to.late 90's. He died in 2004 of non-Hodgkins lymphoma.
    This was Jim Carrey's seventh t.v interview in Canada where he had made some name for himself by this point as a stand up comedian. His first major role being in the comedy/horror ' movie Once Bitten' in 1985.
