"The World of Truman" is a unique and creative film. Not only the content is thought-provoking and touching, but it also has a knowing humor. It is one of the classic representative works of black comedy. The film not only makes a powerful ridicule of morality, human sentiments and the world's scorching climate, but the production structure and plot setting of the entire film also show the skill of the main creators.
The movie’s absolute male No. 1 Truman, a man who has lived in a cage from birth. All people are cooperating with him, parents, wives, friends, and even the world are created artificially. One day, when he went out and finally realized his situation, he wanted to escape, escape from the present world. Finally, when Truman touched the wall at the "end of the sea", I really didn't know whether to cry or laugh... Do
we live in a "cage" designed by others, like Truman. Where?
