Development

Concept and writing

The concept for Dumb and Dumber originated in the 1980s with filmmaker John Hughes, who developed an initial idea titled Ski Nuts centered on two dim-witted friends, Harry and Lloyd, encountering mishaps at a ski resort in Aspen. Hughes sought collaborators after reading unproduced scripts by Peter and Bobby Farrelly, along with their writing partner Bennett Yellin. The trio was brought on to expand the concept, leading to a complete screenplay drafted collaboratively over three weeks in the summer of 1990. The screenplay shifted the setting from a static ski resort to a cross-country road trip, with the protagonists pursuing a woman who leaves behind a briefcase containing ransom money. Key plot elements, including the briefcase as a central MacGuffin and the characters' names—Harry Dunne and Lloyd Christmas—were established during this phase, with the names drawn from Hughes' original outline. Hughes' involvement ended when his deal at Universal Pictures expired, stalling the project. After multiple rejections from studios, the Farrellys and Yellin secured funding through Motion Picture Corporation of America, which partnered with New Line Cinema to greenlight the film following a successful pitch of the revised road-trip script.

Pre-production

New Line Cinema approved a $17 million budget for Dumb and Dumber in 1993, and the film marked the feature debut of the , and . Cinematography was by , who had worked on , and editing by Christopher Greenbury, known for The Program. Location scouting focused on for the opening sequences set in and for the Aspen arrival scenes, with Breckenridge standing in for Aspen. For stunts involving the Mutt Cutts van, the production used practical effects, constructing the vehicle as a modified 1984 Ford Econoline van covered in synthetic fur. Early marketing efforts included developing teaser concepts around the film's structure, with taglines like "For Harry and Lloyd, every day is a no-brainer".

Production

His salary for Dumb and Dumber increased from an initial $700,000 to $7 million during pre-production. Carrey improvised a significant portion of his dialogue. Jeff Daniels was chosen as Harry Dunne, drawn from roles in films like (1985) and Something Wild (1986). The studio initially resisted the casting, favoring a traditional comedian, but Daniels' chemistry read with Carrey convinced the leads and directors and .

Lloyd works as a limousine driver and one day picks up the elegant Mary Swanson, instantly developing a crush on her. While driving her to the airport, Mary leaves behind a briefcase containing a large amount of cash, which is actually ransom money for her kidnapped husband. Unaware of its contents or true purpose, but believing it to be important to her and eager to see her again, Lloyd takes the briefcase home. Smitten with Mary, Lloyd decides to drive to Aspen, Colorado, to return it to her personally, and Harry agrees to accompany him. Before embarking on the cross-country road trip in Harry's customized Mutt Cutts van, the hitman "Mental" Mentalino sneaks into their apartment and kills Harry's pet , Petey, by slitting its throat with a knife. Aware that the bird is dead, Lloyd tapes its head back on to trick a neighborhood boy into buying it for gas money, leading to a confrontation when Harry learns the truth. During their journey, the duo encounters a series of comedic mishaps that highlight their obliviousness and poor judgment. At a roadside , they clash with a tough trucker named after spilling salt on him, eventually tricking him into covering their meal. Later, they pick up hitchhiker "Mental" Mentalino, a sent by the criminals after the . In the van, Mental grows impatient and yells at them.

When he requests his medication, they mistakenly administer rat poison from his bag—which he had brought to kill them—believing it to be his pills, resulting in his death. Running low on funds en route, they trade their van for a mini scooter to reach Aspen. Throughout, they are pursued by Nicholas Andre, the ringleader behind the , and his associate J.P. Shay, who desperately seek to recover the . Arriving in Aspen broke, Lloyd and Harry open the briefcase and discover the large amount of cash inside. They use money from the briefcase to check into a luxury hotel. At a high-society , Lloyd awkwardly attempts to reunite with , but Harry steps in to speak with her on Lloyd's behalf and ends up charming her into inviting him for an outing the next day. Out of jealousy, Lloyd spikes Harry's coffee with laxatives that morning, leading to Harry enduring a humiliating ordeal of digestive issues during the snowmobile ride and snowball fight with Mary. As revelations unfold, it becomes clear that the holds the for 's , held captive by Andre in a remote well. The duo unwittingly aids the FBI, who approach Harry offscreen and enlist his help to reveal the kidnapper by having him wear a bulletproof vest and fake his death, while Lloyd helps rescue the husband from the well, ultimately foiling the kidnapping plot without realizing their role. In the aftermath, Mary rejects Lloyd's advances, citing their profound stupidity as incompatible. Broke and dejected, Lloyd and Harry hitchhike back home when a tour bus carrying the Hawaiian Tropic bikini team stops.
