We’re Are All Truman Burbank
Wednesday, March 4th, 2009On The Truman Show, Jim Carrey played a character whose every move was available to the television-viewing public 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, all his life. Carrey’s character, Truman Burbank, had been adopted by a corporation as a baby and raised on an island within a domed “stage” constructed specifically to turn his whole life into one big reality show. Near the end of the movie, Truman discovers the truth and manages to escape his faux world, presumably finding a real life of privacy.
In “reality,” this can only happen in the movies.
