THE BACK OF THE BOX
WHAT THE STUDIO WANTS YOU TO KNOW

    Carl Allen has stumbled across a way to shake free of post-divorce blues and a dead-end job: embrace life and say yes to everything. Take a bungee plunge? Yes. Accept call-now offers? Yes. Learn Korean? Yes. Grab the first flight anywhere? Yes. Win your dream girl? Yes. Crack up fans with a feel-good, laugh-loaded romp? Yes! Working every funny bone in his nimble body and every muscle in his hilariously mobile face, Jim Carrey plays Carl in a YEScapade about opening up to life's possibilities - especially when thiose possibilities include romance wit an intriguing, free-spirited muscisian (Zooey Deschanel). From the director of Bring It On and The Break-Up comes an invitation to discover the comedy power of yes.

THE GEEK BOX
TRIVIA TO IMPRESS YOUR EASILY IMPRESSED FRIENDS

• This movie is based on the book of the same name written by Danny Wallace who chronicled his own year-long adventure in which he said yes to everything. He also has a cameo in the film as the "Man In Bar".
• Jim Carrey had no salary for this film instead his contract stated that he would receive 36.2% of the film's profits, not including video rentals and sales, that would put his pay check at roughly 5.7 million.
• Jim Carrey insisted on doing the bungee jump stunt himself in the film. However this caused a nightmare with insurance companies who did not want to insure the movie with risking the lead actor in such a dangerous stunt. The insurance company negotiated an agreement with two stipulations, one that the scene be filmed last so if there were any injuries it would not interfere with the shooting schedules. And second that they would only have one take to get in all of their shots. As a result four separate cameras were used to capture the jump, which went off without any injury. However Carrey did suffer three broken ribs filming the scene in which he runs into the waitress. During one take he hit the ground too hard and suffered the unexpected injury.
• When Carl Allen (played by Jim Carrey) is in the video store for the second time, he can be seen renting the film The Cable Guy, and in the back ground The Number 13 is playing on the stores' televisions, both are movies that Carrey previously starred in.
• Jack Black was originally considered for the role of Carl Allen before Jim Carrey became interested in the part.
