I popped in "The Truman Show" the other evening as it's one of my all time favorites and I was definitely not disappointed.
There is so much about this movie that I absolutely love. It really is one of the better movies of the past 10 years. This is really Jim Carrey's breakthrough role to another level previously unseen.
The movie focuses on the life of Truman Burbank (Carrey) and his day to day rituals. All of America tunes in to watch Truman live his life, but the jokes on him for he has no idea he is in a false world.
The producers of "The Truman Show" built the largest set ever constructed for TV to house the world of Sea Haven and Truman Burbank. Truman lives his entire life in this falsified existence with no hint of contact from the outside world.
Eventually, Truman sees several signs that something is not quite right in his world. When he cannot escape the town, he knows he must find a way to discover the truth. He winds up facing his fears and attacking the high seas to find his answers.
This movie presents a true tragedy of a man that is lied to his entire life. He finds the means for escape to find the true reality that we live in.
It poses many questions about how we live our reality. "We accept the reality of the world with which we are presented." This is so true. It makes you wonder if we live in the real reality or one fabricated for other's viewing pleasure. How do we know what is real? Who do we look to for guidance? Great questions from a great movie.
This is truly my favorite subject material and a fantastic presentation in this medium. Carrey is so great in the end and makes it work so well. Find it, love it, live it...
