The Mask was Cameron Diaz's first major movie role and she was good in the movie but of course The Mask was all about the genius of Jim Carrey. The Mask had a budget of $23 million.

I met Jim Carrey once backstage at the Tonight Show. He was very nice and funny in real life. He was actually too nice as a Hollywood agent kept kissing his ass and making him uncomfortable but he didn't tell him to get lost. As soon as his limo came around he bolted away from the agent like a bat out of hell.
