Plot summary
Directed by: Peter Farrelly
Starring: Jeff Daniels, Jim Carrey, Lauren Holly, Mike Starr
Two friends from high school, Harry and Lloyd, live as roommates in Providence. They're both quite dim and can't hold a job for very long. Lloyd, while working as a limo driver, is hired to take Mary Swanson to the airport. He is instantly smitten with her and falls in love. He drops her off at the airport and he sees her leave her briefcase in the middle of the terminal. What he doesn't know is that the briefcase is full of money, a ransom payment, for her husband who was kidnapped. Lloyd interferes with the pick-up and tries to get the briefcase back to Mary before she gets on her plane. He is too late, so he and Harry travel across the country to Aspen, where Mary is headed. When they get there, Mary starts falling for Harry however and Lloyd gets jealous.

Suggested correction: Mental isn't sitting on a bench seat, it's implied he's sitting on the floor of the van in between the both of them. Although hard to see, the backs of the bucket seats can still be seen behind Harry and Lloyd at certain points. You see a fair bit of it behind Harry whilst he's dancing as Lloyd sings the line "and if that mocking bird don't sing".
