Jeff Daniels‘ career has been all over the place he’s done dramatic movies, horror movies and even raunchy comedies. In recent years he has been known as Will McAvoy on HBO’s well-written intense drama Newsroom. So to see him back as Harry Dunne in Dumb and Dumber To, will make it very hard for me to take him seriously this Sunday when I watch the show. And when I see the movie, I will have a hard time adjusting to him being so dumb. But I am sure after a few gags, I will get over it.
BTW I wonder what it is like for him to go from the brilliant and wordy Aaron Sorkin to the goofy but lovable Farrelly Brothers. It’s gotta f*ck with your mind on some level.
