When a person lives in everyone's control for a long time, and everyone you meet in your life is a comedian, this person is a live-action live broadcast for almost thirty years, but the protagonist in the film does not know that he lives in a lie and a scam.
Many movies generally do not point out the theme of the story, until we see the end of the sudden realization, the story in the play is actually like this, but the director put these directly at the beginning of the film, bluntly tell the viewer, this is a story, is the story they created around this illusory world.
No one can rescue Truman, only he can save himself, in fact, he can fully find the similarities in his life, repeat his life every day, repeat a word, he is not without self-awareness, he just does not want to escape from this comfort zone.
In fact, in Truman's thirty years of life, his life was quite comfortable, with a stable job, a wife who loved him and a white moonlight that he could not forget in his heart.
When the appearance of this white moonlight shattered Truman's entire fantasy of thirty years of life, the girl's words began to make him wonder if the world really existed.
The girl said to him "everything is fake, you must escape and come to Fiji to find me".
In fact, it was this girl who could make Truman really make up his mind, at the beginning he was actually very vague about this girl, and he only had a rough outline in his mind, and he needed to rely on the female stars in the magazine to piece together the appearance of this girl.
When he made up his mind to go to Fiji to find this girl, his friends around him began to panic, and the creator who created all this tried his best to stop it, which also made him doubt the truth of what he said!
The time that made him really feel that this life was wrong was when he and his wife were preparing to go to Fiji for marriage, and at the wedding they were ready to exchange rings, but his wife clasped the ring with her finger, and even read the slogan at this critical moment.
The friends who grew up with him also spoke to the headphones at this time, all of which were only to leave Truman on this small island full of surveillance, because their design made Truman feel frightened.
This is also the "Truman World" presented to us in the movie, using Truman's first perspective to open the whole story, on the other hand, it is a 24-hour live TV program designed by the great director who claims to be the Creator for thirty years.
In the show, Truman does not have any privacy, the people around him are actors, and only Truman lives in his own world. This is the world of the audience.
"If I never see you again, I wish you a good morning, a good afternoon, and a good night." This classic line, Truman actually said three times, from here, is also the last time Truman to greet in the way of creation, greet her neighbor opposite, squeeze out his smile, but this smile is particularly sad.
Once again, when he made the disguise, it was he who had already made up his mind to escape from the studio, and he began to exert all his acting skills, which was a small revenge on his creation, and performed a Truman's play-in-play for him for free.
While the Creator was lamenting his success, Truman had begun to prepare himself, to say goodbye to this false world and say goodbye to the twenty-four-hour surveillance. By this time, the creature was stunned, and he saw Truman laughing exaggeratedly as usual, and then walked into the small black house without looking back!
In Truman's world, they have no hypocritical expressions, no cool stunts, and even no script creation, all of them are actors, describing this person's life in some way.
So is Truman in the lens absolutely true? More than 5,000 cameras in the studio, 360 ° no dead angle, 24-hour live broadcast without interruption, can you truly record all the true feelings and thoughts of a person?
In fact, they are all wrong, in Truman's eyes, these people are actors, and Truman is the most sober one, they think they control the whole situation, but in fact they are trying to play the characters in the play, these so-called things presented in the lens, just what Truman wants them to see.
Although the Creator can control Truman's life, he cannot control his heart, what kind of person Truman is, what he is thinking, the camera has no way to control it.
His habits, his spoken language, even exaggerated laughter and biologically frightened animals were all defined for him by these audiences, who forcibly customized these things on Truman, the theme of the film , "Truman's World" .
We look at Truman's helplessness, watch him constantly struggle, trying to escape from this huge cage, can we think of ourselves.
If we find out that our life is a reality show, what should our reflection be, whether it is confused or panicked, can we have the courage to fight like Truman.
In fact, this movie brings us a lot of meaning, from the beginning to the end, with a fantasy means, let Truman find and successfully escape from the cage, but did Truman who escaped from Truman really succeed?
The whole film is witty and dark, using light comedy to let everyone see a different Hollywood, of course, although this movie is the launch of the business model, but he is not particularly commercial.
It has the color of a commercial film, but it has the feeling of an art film, which is why it is accepted and loved by most audiences. Stemming from deep humanistic thinking, the film does not take the route of general commercial films.
From the very beginning, it unveils the turban that the story could have used as a half-covered face, and then allows the audience to devote all their energy to paying attention to the choice of the protagonist Truman. This is the same as the theme of the movie, when all the intentions are placed in front of people, see where the audience is going!
In fact, the story told in the film is a powerful critique of the voyeuristic fantasy nature of film and television, and at the end of the film, a policeman asks others: Are there other programs to watch? This is the most poignant satire on the media that will stop at nothing for traffic.
The first half of the film is witty and humorous, the second half is doubly chilling, in the face of true freedom, stability is not worth mentioning, each of us may be Truman, our fate is controlled by others, and everyone is eager to break free from this shackles.
But precisely because we are not the protagonist, there is no aura, and it is not easy to truly control our own life, so we can only resist with all our strength and try to get out of this false life!
We also have cowardly times in our lives, and we don't even have the determination to resist, but I hope that everyone can be as brave as Truman, get rid of this shackles that trap people, and start from a new beginning!
Thank you for watching, paying attention to me, and taking you to learn more entertainment stories!
