I watched the film "The Mask" with Jim Carrey in one of my classes and we tried to find out what symbolizes this mask that sticks to his face and transforms him into his inner personality, that wants to become a super hero in search of justice and a good time too. One of the conclusions were that the mask is a visual representation of the media that comes between our eyes and the real world, changes our inner personality and forces us to become a 2 dimentional cartoon character that kills time (the clock) with a giant hammerand to want to become Superman that saves the world with a gun. I would be glad to hear other explanations for the meaning of "The Mask".
