About this product

Product Information

Comic actor Jim Carrey plays it (mostly) straight for this smart satire from director Peter Weir (DEAD POETS SOCIETY). The life of Truman Burbank (Carrey) has been broadcast around the world with tremendous success since the day he was born. A star for the mere fact that he exists, Truman has no idea that there are cameras in every corner of his world. But soon, cracks begin to show in the constructed world, and Truman questions his existence while everyone around him is in on the joke. Weir directs a fine cast, including Laura Linney as Truman's wife and Ed Harris as the show's director. Screenwriter Andrew Niccol also added interesting twists to the scripts for S1M0NE and GATTACA.

  • Unexpectedly Heartwarming

    The Truman Show does for Jim Carrey what Punch Drunk Love did for Adam Sandler. It gives him a dramatic role and shows naysayers he can act. It also helps that the film deals with Truman living his life, unaware that's it's a staged show built, designed, and produced for the mass audiences. However, Truman ultimately starts to get suspicious of his surroundings and what happens after he finds out has to be seen to be believed. Expertly directed by Witness director Peter Weir, it's well worth the unexpected watch.
