Curiosidades

Rubberface is a 1981 television film aired on CBC and starring Jim Carrey in his film and television debut. Originally titled Introducing... Janet, it was changed to Rubberface for the video release after Carrey's success.

Production

The film's script was written by Michael Glassbourg, who portrayed a stand-up comedian in the film. His younger sister Adah was cast as Janet after he encouraged her to audition. She did not believe that she would receive the role as she "was 25, inexperienced and slender trying out for a part of a fat 16-year-old." The Glassbourgs' younger sibling Emil was also cast in a minor role as an ice-cream vendor.

Filming took place in Toronto and Adah gained 10 pounds in order to portray Janet. Jim Carrey was brought in to portray the character of Tony; the CBC later noted that he was 19-years-old when the film was made. The film marked the first appearance of Jim Carrey in film or television.
