Truman lives on an almost utopian island with a stable and decent job, a gentle and virtuous-looking nurse wife, and lives a stable and leisurely life with a car and a house.
But he has never walked out of this square inch. He occasionally flashes the idea of going out, but it is always drowned out by the noise of the outside world. Countless voices flocked to him, "Going out will spend all your savings", "The outside world is not necessarily better than here, where is not life." "You don't know what to do when you go out, where to live and what to eat. What are you going to do?" He could always easily find excuses for himself.
Truman thought that everything in front of him was his choice. He didn't know that he lived in an invisible shackle, and all he could see was an illusion. Since he was born, he has been in the live show monitored by countless cameras. His life has long been In the written script, everyone is an actor who appears according to the plot, including his parents, buddies, and wife.
The director tried his best to cut out all the accidents he might encounter, so he walked forward smoothly like this. Towards an end that no one can escape - death.
In the expectation of more than one billion viewers, Truman finally saw through the deception, overcame his inner cowardice, and walked out of this false utopian world.
This is not an absurd comedy, but a naked reality chapter. Who of us is not a live Truman, and who of us is not a group of Trumen?
Life is nothing but a deception, just a fan of the authorities.
The director who directed the Truman Show is like an invisible desire to control our destiny. He is the expectation of the society for us, the expectation of our parents, friends, etc., and everyone desires us to live as he expects. , eager to arrange our life, eager that we can follow his wishes in this life, what book to read, what road to walk, even what to believe, what ideal to pursue, what job to do, and when to marry whom, they did their best All forces arrange our lives and try to cut out all the accidents that may happen.
If everything is as arranged by others, in the end it will be Truman who did not go out in the movie.
Just like Truman, maybe you have your own ideals and longing for life. However, in the voice of the outside world, you finally found an excuse for yourself to be "afraid of water", and the vines of life were cut off by the director's hands. .
The charm of life lies in the fact that it is full of unknowns. A life that can be seen at a glance is a tragedy. It is human nature to be afraid of the unknown, but passing through these unknowns and feeling the joy in them is the value of life.
Everyone is a completely independent individual life, no one is just a part of the society, not a sequel to our parents, we need to maintain the independence of our lives. Either be a whole person who knows how to think and judge, or be a puppet at his mercy.
There is no utopia in this world itself, and if there really is a utopia, it is also a purifier to erase the color of life. All the remarks that try to construct a utopia are just killing and exploiting your current conspiracy.
