Storyline
Stanley Ipkiss is a bank clerk that is an incredibly nice man. Unfortunately, he is too nice for his own good and is a pushover when it comes to confrontations. After one of the worst days of his life, he finds a mask that depicts Loki, the Norse night god of mischief. Now, when he puts it on, he becomes his inner, self: a cartoony romantic wild man. However, a small time crime boss, Dorian Tyrel, comes across this character dubbed "The Mask" by the media. After Ipkiss's alter ego indirectly kills his friend in crime, Tyrel now wants this green-faced goon destroyed. Written by Ian Pugh <skypilot@ezaccess.net>

Trivia
The oversized teeth on the Mask character were originally to be used only during silent scenes. However, Jim Carrey learned to talk with them on to make his character that much more wacky. See more »Goofs
Incorrectly regarded as goofs: The Mask makes the words 'Rip Off' out of 'Ripley Auto Finishing,' which only has one 'F' in it. However, it is shown throughout the film that the Mask has the ability to make things materialize out of thin air. See more »Crazy Credits
When all the credits have finished some jazz drumming is heard. Then thefamiliar sounds of The Mask are heard saying "Yo-ho-ho-ho" (in a very drawn
voice) then the sound of The Mask spinning away is heard straight after. See more »
