"Truman's World" is about the story of an ordinary man named "Truman", and "Truman's World" in the movie is a TV show.
This TV program broadcasts Truman's life all day long, is loved by the majority of audiences, and the ratings have always been very high.
Truman lives in a small town called "Taoyuan Island", which is a beautiful seaside town.
When he was a child, Truman and his father went out to sea by boat but encountered a storm, and his father fell into the sea and died since Then Truman has had a shadow on the sea.
As an adult, Truman had a relaxed job, had a very good brother, had a virtuous wife, and everything seemed beautiful.
Yet it was all fake, his father's death, his brothers, his wife, his mother, and everything in his life was acting.
If Truman hadn't been for schvia, an alumnus of his time at university, telling him the truth by the sea, he might have been in the dark forever.
Sometimes doubt is like a seed, and if it is inadvertently planted, it will take root in the heart.
An unexpected drive causes him to listen to different radio stations on the road, which is another world (that is, the communication that director Corece and his TV team use to arrange for actors to be in place).
"After 90 seconds, he is about to arrive, remember to release the puppy" When Truman heard this, he still felt strange, but to his surprise, after 90 seconds, he saw a puppy.
At this time, Truman began to wonder if he was being monitored, whether everything around him was not as real as he thought.
We can look at this line of components as the Truman "before awakening" and the Truman "after awakening".
Whenever this happens, we can't help but wonder: Why is what we hear differently from the facts?
In fact, this contradiction between self-discovery and rumors from others abounds in our lives.
This kind of confusion not only bothers you and me, but also troubles the hero Truman in "Truman's World".
With that "voyeuristic" shot, we viewers will also find:
With the expansion of the global village and the development of media technology, the definitions of "real" and "false" have become difficult to define, which affects our decision-making and attitude all the time.
It is also worth mentioning that director Peter Will made the film look more like a TV show.
Shooting with a format ratio of 1.66:1 is undoubtedly unprecedented, and it can be said that it has truly laid the foundation of reality and illusion.
The plot setting and the portrayal of the characters push this reality and unreality to the climax.
In the film, an elder named Christopher advises Truman to say:
"The outside world is even less real than my fictional world, and it is also full of lies and hypocrisy. But in my world, you don't have to be afraid, you'll become history. ”
At this time, Truman did not know what to say better, nor did he know whether the outside world would be more hypocritical than his current life, he only felt overwhelmed.
There is a corresponding "cave theory", and the price of familiarity with caves is "being stung by the real sunlight outside".
Without hesitation, Truman greeted the audience with his usual humorous way, bowed to close the curtain, and then stepped out of the exit of the studio.
At that moment, he left the absurd world in which he had lived for thirty years!
Truman chose to leave Seaview Island because he not only wanted to escape the world of hypocrisy but also to get rid of the control of others.
Everyone's life should have its own grasp, and there is nothing more rare than being yourself.
Life is like a drama, and the best director is yourself.
