People, choose their own life, choose their own path

I watched "The Truman World" again today. Really a good movie.
I was moved when he spelled out Shifia out of fragments of a magazine girl's head.
I was moved when he escaped from the "sea", on a sailboat, and pulled out a patchwork head of Sphia from his pocket.
I was moved when he was dying on the sea battling a storm created by the director.
I was moved when his sailboat hit the wall painted with sky patterns and found that the place where he had lived for 30 years was just a photo studio, crying bitterly, hitting the wall with his hands, elbows, and head.
In the end, the dialogue between Truman and director Christof seems to be more religious. Christof's voice came from the sky, the direction of the sun, like the voice of God, maybe this is why the director's name is Christof. The director is the symbol of God, and Truman is the representative of human beings. Should human beings obey God's will, be at the mercy of God, obey fate, and live in a world designed by God? Truman chose rebellion, freedom, and resistance.
Truman's choice is also a human choice - to fight against fate.
People, choose their own life, choose their own path.

    In the last shot, he relied on a piece of "ocean" and a piece of "blue sky", the picture is very surrealistic.

    If life deceives you, muster the courage to be yourself. PS: This program that repeats two points and one-line daily life without interruption for 20 or 30 years is very boring. For many viewers, they may not be able to see the ending alive. Such a show that is not to be seen or expected is really there. Is it possible to maintain the ratings...?

The Truman Show quotes

  • Marlon: [Emotional, almost to the point of tears] The point is, I would gladly step in front of traffic for you Truman. And the last thing I would ever do to you...

    Christof: [Feeding Marlon his lines] ... is lie to you.

    Marlon: ...is lie to you.

  • Meryl: [Spinning around the roundabout] Truman, I think I'm going to throw up!

    Truman: Me too!
