respect anyone

After watching this film, I was amazed at the profound skills of the director and screenwriter, who brought a very profound work to the audience. The director is not cold-blooded, because he arranges a Sofia - a billionaire audience or countless actors who is different from any sideshow - to let her predict the ultimate failure of the "director": because the "director" ignores that trueman is A person. People are not dolls. No one can manipulate others. What people need is mutual respect. I admire trueman's courage to find a real life, I also admire Sophia's bravery, of course, what is more commendable is her respect for others in her human nature. Only she respects trueman as a human being, not a puppet.

[Truman attempts to leave his town and a convoy of cars pulls in front of him to block his exit]
Truman Burbank: Blocked at every turn. Beautifully synchronized, don't you agree?
Meryl: You're blaming me for the traffic?
Truman Burbank: Should I?
Meryl: Truman, let's go home.
Truman Burbank: You're right. We could be stuck here for hours. It could be like this all the way to Atlantic City. Let's go back. I'm sorry. I don't know what got into me.
Meryl: Truman, can you slow down?
Truman Burbank: Yes, I can.
Meryl: Truman. Truman, that's our turnoff.
Truman Burbank: I changed my mind. What's New Orleans like this time of year? Mardi Gras, woooooo! Ha ha ha ha ha! Hoo hoo hoo! Whoooohoo! Look, Meryl! Same road, no cars. It's magic! Hahaha!
Meryl: You let me out, Truman. You're not right in the head. You want to destroy yourself you do it on your own.
Truman Burbank: I think I'd like a little company.

[flashback to Truman at school]
Young Truman: I like to be an explorer, like the great Magellan.
Teacher: [rolling down a map of the world] Oh, you're too late. There's really nothing left to explore.
