Truman Burbank lives a 'normal' existence and there is nothing special about him at all. Except that he is the star of the Truman show ... the ultimate reality TV show which has been live on air 24/7 since the day he was born !!! Everything in his life has been added or created by the producer ... including his family ... but Truman does not realise. He lives on an island and has been conditioned to never want to leave, his life is completely controlled and there are hidden cameras everywhere. But Truman has a greater destiny ... he just needs to find it first !!! This movie is fascinating ... highly recommended !!!
Stunning satire from director Peter Weir with fantastic performances from Jim Carey, Laura Linney and Ed Harris (Ed should have received a best supporting actor oscar for his appearance here). What's really interesting about the Truman show is that it was released in 1999 just before reality TV shows became commonplace. It is basically ahead of it's time as it imagines the ultimate reality show charting a persons life from beginning to end. The Truman Show is a perfectly constructed film in every way and the music by composer Phillip Glass is superbly atmospheric. It is one of those rare films with a perfect ending and the rewatch value of this film is high. Definitely worth a watch!
