You mean the movie, that jim carrey playes, Andy Kaufmann
right.

I won't ruin it for you, you should finish watching, Andy
Kaufmann, a comedy genious, great movie. I love his idea
of messing with the vertical hold at the tv station during
his show so everyones tv screen's start rolling and they get
up to try to fix there screen but its really him at the
network making everyones tv screw up.

I ve seen the movie, but the director of the movie seems
that he wants to confuse everybody...and its not clear if
andy dies or not...anybody knows??

Yeah its a good movie=)
I like the actor who play Kaufmanns friend.
Very underrated , i would like to se him in more serious
parts.

The ending , yes i think its only the director fucking with
our minds the same way Kaufman did when he was alive.

Yes, Andy Kaufmann did die of cancer.

answer:
I just watched the andy kaufman bio pic "man on the moon",
staring jim carrey. i didnt understand the ending. If it
was a year after andy died, how could tony clifton be
singing on stage with bob zmuda standing in the back of the
crowd watching ? how could this have happened ?
It didnt
while this picture is based on a true story, some characters
were composited or invented, and a number of event
fictionalized. the final scene of the movie was one of
those fictionalized scenes.
In real life almost one year after andy's death bob zmuda
dressed up as tony clifton and hosted a show at the comedy
store. the show raised money for cancer research in andy's
memory and became a catalyst for zmuda's comic relief
charity fundraiser

nacmat, 70ies and beginning of 80ies.
Jim Carrey is a great actor and he has played serious roles
too. Anyone seen 'The Majestic'?
