On Friday Director Judd Apatow praised star Jim Carrey while presenting the actor with the Generation Award at the Just For Laughs festival in Montreal.
Apatow first witnessed the Canadian-born comic's genius during the late 1980s and 1990s when watching Carrey do endlessly brilliant improvisational sets in Hollywood comedy club.
Apatow said of Carrey's early performances at The Improv, "He would go on stage every night and improvise his entire set. His goal was not to repeat one line from any other night. It was the funniest thing I've ever seen in my life."
