The Grinch Movie Trivia

Hello another week and Here is some Christmas Movie Trivia and this time it’s The Grinch!! This is a great Christmas movie and Jim Carrey steals the movie! So here are some little things you may not know about the movie itself enjoy!!

The prosthetic make-up Jim Carrey wore took about 8 hours to apply. Carrey felt so horribly confined and uncomfortable in the latex skin he needed counseling from a CIA agent who taught him torture-resistance techniques.

The Whoville set was built mostly on the backlot of Universal Studios behind the still-standing Bates Motel. During a break in filming Jim Carrey surprised and scared tourists on the Universal Backlot Tour by running out of the hotel wearing a dress and brandishing a knife. Nobody recognized him, and the tour guide at Universal Studios will tell you the story when you by the hotel on the Backlot Tour.

Ron Howard was so thankful for Jim Carrey putting up with the uncomfortable hours to apply his make-up, he had the same make-up put on himself to make Carrey feel better. However, when Carrey first saw Howard in full Grinch outfit, he was angered, mistaking the director for a stunt double who “looked nothing like him”.

Jim Carrey, with no accompaniment or anything to alter his voice, sang a few verses of the signature song “You’re a Mean One, Mr. Grinch”.
