Review of The Truman Show (1998) by Geoffrey H — 17 Sep 2018
The Truman Show shook me by its audacity of premise and execution. This is straight out of The Twilight Zone(in fact writer Andrew Nicchol based the screenplay on an episode of The Twilight Zone. Jim Carrey plays an insurance salesman who has no idea that his entire life is scripted and part of a television show.
This is a departure of sorts for Peter Weir also and though I have forgotten much of this film I remember liking it a lot. There are many underlying themes and the entire presentation is something you don't see often.
This is a healthy recommendation regardless of whether you are a fan of Carrey or not. (An original science fiction feature film).
