Daily Dialogue — August 28, 2010

Ace Ventura: What the… That’s it! Einhorn is Finkle! Finkle is Einhorn! Einhorn is a man! 
[Ace remembers how Einhorn kissed him and the pieces fall into place] 
Ace Ventura: Oh, my GOD! Einhorn is a man!

 — Ace Ventura (Jim Carrey), Ace Ventura: Pet Detective (1994), screenplay by Jack Bernstein and Tom Shadyac & Jim Carrey

The Daily Dialogue theme this week is characters talking out loud to themselves, suggested by Greg Colburn. Ace Ventura: Pet Detective suggested by Robert.

Trivia: The voice of Ace Ventura and the manner in which he speaks, was added by Jim Carrey only after several readings of the script. The voice was something Carrey used in his stand up routine. The “All righty then” was the catch phrase of one of his stand up characters and after the lines from the script weren’t feeling right, he added it to the script and read through it again using that voice for all the lines. It was such an improvement that it became the main Ace Ventura personality trait.
