The Cable Guy / Fun With Dick And Jane

THE CABLE GUY


Jim Carrey is Chip Douglas, cable installer. Raised on television sitcoms, he wants life to look just like My Three Sons. And when he meets single guy Steven Kovacs (Matthew Broderick), he sees his chance for some serious male bonding. But Chip's idea of friendship - which includes physical assault, a game of 'Porno Password' and a medieval joust - may be hazardous to Steven's health. In Chip's own immortal words, "I can be your best friend... or your worst enemy." Directed by Ben Stiller (Reality Bites).

FUN WITH DICK AND JANE


Audience favourite and outrageous funny-man Jim Carrey headlines the lead cast (Tea Leoni, Alec Baldwin) in this hilarious update on the 1977 original about an out-of-work husband and wife who turns to a life of crime in order to pay their bills. Years of hard work finally paid off for Dick Harper (Carrey) when he is promoted to vice-president at Globodyne, a worldwide leader in the consolidation of media properties. But exactly one day into his new job, Globodyne is destroyed by an Enron-like calamity. Dicks sudden reversal of fortune has left him with little money, as he and his wife (Leoni) watch in horror as their deluxe home, luxury cars and their status-conscious friends vanish into the air. Taking a lesson from his corrupt employer, however, Dick hits on a brilliant idea: if stealing was good enough for his boss, then its good enough for him.
