Yes Man is a 2008 American comedy film directed by Peyton Reed and starring Jim Carrey. The film is based on the true story and 2005 book Yes Man by British humourist Danny Wallace (who has a brief cameo in the film). Luke Rhinehart's 1971 novel The Diceman is a thematic predecessor to the book and the subsequent film. The film's soundtrack features original music by "Munchausen by Proxy", a fictional band named after the Münchausen syndrome by proxy, a psychological disorder. Jim Carrey's character is incessantly invited to see the band by an over-eager manager/street promoter. Along with female lead Zooey Deschanel, the fictional band was created by Autumn Jermacans.
