Brief introduction of the movie
The Truman Show is a 1998 American comedy-drama film.The hero named Truman, whose life is a real television show,which all of his life from a baby to a 30-year-old man broadcast 24-hours-a-day to billions of people across the globe.
The analysis of the characters in this movie
Truman Burbank, the hero of this movie who seems to have a normal life that exactly the same as others’, but he doesn’t know many people are watching him through thousands of concealed cameras, furthermore everyone live together with him areperformers.Truman’s life is absolutely a vast lie. So, he is only true man in the world he lives.
Christof,the director of Truman’s TV show who create a town which every actor lived in including Truman is exactly a huge studio ,even he create the sky and ocean and all accident appeared in
Truman’s life. He is like a god as his name.
The reflection of our world by this movie
1.The desire topeep at other people's privacy.
Everybody has a desire to peep other’s privacy, that’s why the Truman show has got billions of audience.Most people want to satisfy themselves through peering other’s life.
2. Thepursuit of freedom.
Truman chose freedom that he never had in he’s first 30 years of life. In fact, all people applauded for him when he gets out of the existence.
3.Thevenality of the media.
Sometimes, we had to admit that some media even sacrifice the rightof others to achieve their own benefits. It’s inhumanenot just only to Truman.
What interested me and impressed me
“Life is like a box of chocolate,you never know what you’re going to get before you open it”,are we satisfied with God’s arrangements? NO!Nobody has the right to arrange one’s life except toourselves. Life is supposed to be an adventurewith surprise and disappointment.Just like Truman, sacrificed his fake but peaceful life to get his true life with adventure and freedom. So,let’s congratulate for Truman’s liberation.。
