Filmmakers of many comedies, their movies include Dumb and Dumber, There's Something About Mary, The Ringer, Kingpin, and Fever Pitch. The Farrelly brothers include many people with disabilities in their movies. They are presented without pity or condescension and never defined by their disabilities. The Farrellys demonstrate that regardless of any differences, we are all people. Away from the screen, the Farrelly brothers volunteer and are committed to the Special Olympics and "Best Buddies."For more information or to purchase tickets, please visit www.crarc.org.
