The Farrelly brothers, Peter (b. December 17, 1956) and Bobby (b. June 17, 1958), are screenwriters and directors of ten comedy films, including There's Something About Mary; Dumb and Dumber; Kingpin; Me, Myself & Irene; Shallow Hal; Stuck on You; Osmosis Jones; Fever Pitch (also known as The Perfect Catch outside of America) and The Heartbreak Kid. The Farrelly brothers are from Cumberland, Rhode Island, and many of their movies partially take place in that state, or elsewhere in New England. Sports play a large part in their films and they have cast many popular sports stars for cameo appearances. The Farrelly brothers frequently cast Rob Moran and sports figures (e.g. Cam Neely; Roger Clemens; Brett Favre) in their films. They have been both praised and criticized for their humorous use of disability. They frequently depict able-bodied people as stupid (Dumb and Dumber) while they show disabled people as being aspirational (Shallow Hal) or gifted (Me, Myself & Irene). They useslapstick and toilet humor, often with a soundtrack of upbeat, light rock songs. Their films often contain flashback scenes that show how a character was affected by a traumatic event.
