Copper Mountain is a 1983 comedy film about two friends who travel to a Colorado ski resort. One of them, played by Alan Thicke, looks to hit the slopes and the other, played by Jim Carrey, spends his time trying to pick up women. The film was written by Damian Lee and David Mitchell, who also directed it. Half of the movie consists of live musical performances by artists such as Rita Coolidge and other country singers, and the other half of the movie is more or less an infomercial about the now-closed Club Med village at the U.S. ski resort at Copper Mountain, Colorado. It marked Jim Carrey's first leading role.
