Title: The Truman Show
Post by: Banana on January 28, 2006, 07:58:12 pm

I watched this movie today.  It's great.  I love it.  

If you haven't seen it, the movie revolves around a man named Truman Burbank (Jim Carrey) The world he lives in is an illusion.  He was born and raised in a huge dome in Hollywood where every single person he knows is an actor.  Every waking moment of his life is recorded on cameras and shown live 24 hours a day on the hit reality seires The Truman Show, which manages without commercials through subliminal advertising.  Finally Truman realizes what is going on and attempts to escape from the fake world.

It's kind of hard to explain so you really have to see it.  It's probably Carrey's most serious movie to date.

Ooh yea, excellent movie.  I almost wish I was the star of a massive reality TV show.

Anyway, IceFox is right.  His role in Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind was more serious, and possibly better too.
