It's really happening! After years of delays and legal red tape, the notorious Jim Carrey gay prison movie I Love You Phillip Morris is coming out via Roadside Attractions just in time for Christmas, and the domestic trailer has just been released. (It's been on the shelf so long that the last time Vulture covered a trailer for the film — then just a three-minute clip produced for French audiences — it was in December 2008. )
Sure, the rest of the world has already watched it and the movie's been online for ages, but hey, Jim Carrey hasn't been seen in a live-action film in a few years, so there's that, right? Should Phillip Morris not be to your liking, you could simply hold out until Carrey's overdue return to movies commences with Mr. Popper's Penguins, but we have a hunch that movie will include way less gay spooning in prison, and be all the worse for it.

Hmmmm. Having seen the moive, that new trailer leaves a bad taste in my mouth. :-\ I don't think it does the movie justice. I liked the old trailers better.

The new trailer is hysterical.
It emphasizes the conman part and the marriage part more though.
"Maybe this is Jesus' plan. Gotta go, Jesus is on the other line."
It would be extremely bizarre if they release this movie at Christmas. Isn't Jim Carrey's "A Christmas Carol" also coming out this Christmas?

I agree the new trailer is hysterical...it's been so long, I don't quite remember the original trailer. Except I do remember Steven standing at the door with flowers, a limo, trying to entice Phillip to open the door. I think this new trailer has wider appeal.

I remember the original trailers. Most strongly emphasized the gay love story more than the marriage part. Though I do wonder, they were a lot more 'general' than this trailer is. Are we sure it's an American trailer? You hardly ever see such blatant sex scenes or coarse language in trailers here.
