2000 film by the Farrelly brothers
Me, Myself & Irene is a 2000 American slapstick black comedy film produced, co-written, and directed by the Farrelly brothers, and starring Jim Carrey and Renée Zellweger. The film is about a Rhode Island state trooper named Charlie (Carrey) who, after years of continuously suppressing his feelings, suffers a psychotic breakdown that results in a second personality, Hank, and must deal with his newfound condition while escorting a woman named Irene (Zellweger) who is being hunted by her mob-affiliated ex-boyfriend. Chris Cooper, Robert Forster, and Richard Jenkins also star.
This was Carrey's first role in a 20th Century Fox film, along with being the Farrelly brothers' second film with Carrey since Dumb and Dumber (1994). Filming was done from May 11 to July 29, 1999, in various locations in Rhode Island and Vermont.
Me, Myself & Irene was released on June 23, 2000, and was a box office success. It received mixed reviews from film critics.
