...CARREY and LAUREN HOLLY's hillside wedding ceremony 10 months ago had the air of risky, throw-caution-to-the-wind impetuosity about it. The two hitched up on the set of Dumb and Dumber in 1994, split up and got back together again just before the nuptials. Alas, the risk didn't pay off. Holly filed for divorce from the spandex-faced comedian on June 25, citing--and this is the shocking part--irreconcilable differences. The split had long been rumored, partly because Holly and the director of her new movie Long Time, Nothing New, Ed Burns, seemed...

...authors conjecture that men may exaggerate or women may understate the number of sex partners they have had.

But he's hoping his newest movie, Liar Liar, in which he plays a dad who has to tell the truth for a day, will change that. "It will open...

...directed by Tom Shadyac, there's enough surrealism in Liar Liar to content all but the most exigent Carrey fans. But there's something worrisome about the film's attempts to socialize and sentimentalize the '90s' designated anarchist. It's wrong to push characters like Carrey's toward mainstream lovability. Danger, with just the slightest touch of lonely-guy geekiness, is his business. Maybe The Cable Guy was miscalculated, but one would rather see Carrey heading for those dark woods than toward sun-splashed suburbia and the cheerfully romantic ending of this film...
