The Truman Show (1997)
Country: US
Technical: col 103m
Director: Peter Weir
Cast: Jim Carrey, Laura Linney, Natascha McElhone, Ed Harris
Synopsis:
A man who has been the subject all his life of a docu-soap without knowing it, gradually wakes up to the artificiality of the world around him, in fact a vast studio bubble.
Review:
Chilling and funny at the same time, like much of its director's work this is thought-provoking in its examination of the human need to take comfort in the elevation of the ordinary to utopian heights. The classic control movie, in the tradition of THX 1138.
