Copper Mountain (a Club Med Experience) (also known as just Copper Mountain) is a 1983 Canadian comedy television film, written and directed by Damian Lee and David Mitchell,[1] produced for CTV Television Network, that premiered on First Choice TV network.[2] Starring Jim Carrey and Alan Thicke, it is a "thinly-veiled"[3] quasi-commercial for the now-defunct Club Med[4] ski resort[5] in Copper Mountain, Colorado. The majority of the runtime consists of rom-com plot interspersed with performances by country and rock and roll musicians, Ronnie Hawkins, Rita Coolidge and Chicago frontman Bill Champlin, with whom TV theme song writer Thicke co-wrote the song "Sara".[6]
Plot
Two friends, Bobby Todd (Carrey) and Jackson Reach (Thicke), travel from their hometown of Grimsby to the Club Med village[7] in Copper Mountain.[8] Jackson intends to hit the ski slopes and compete in a ProAm, while Bobby comically struggles to connect to women, with impressions and routines. Eventually, Jackson wins a ProAm challenge race, and Bobby finds companionship by being himself.[1]
