I'm going my way so bring it on

Truman. This movie was deleted, deleted and downloaded on my computer, of course, for the fame of the classics. After reading the beginning, it is a simple life over and over again, and I doubt where the classics are, so I have been impatient to continue. This time, I borrowed the light of CCTV-6 and finally watched it with peace of mind, only to find that many good things are worth tasting patiently.

The first feeling is horror - GOD, how can someone violate the rights of others like this, not once or twice, but from birth to now, if Trueman doesn't notice, even to death; not other rights, but life The right to freedom, the right to love, marry and have children in accordance with the original will, and the right to enjoy the love of fathers and mothers normally. It turns out that everything about him is fake, the death of his father, the inexplicable disappearance of his first love, the unwarranted Fiji, the most trusted best friend, the wife who keeps advertising coffee beans and lawn mowers to the camera, The car driver in Chicago, the lady who ordered the plane ticket, the neighbor he greets every day, the old newspaper man—everything is fake. More than 5,000 cameras, equivalent to the number of actors in a small country, surround Trueman every day. If it weren't for a radio frequency disorder, maybe he would have been kept in the dark, and he would always greet people when he went out: " If we can't meet again, good noon, good afternoon and good night." Christopher, the omnipotent, selfishly controls the rise and fall of the sun and the moon, calls for wind and rain, controls Truman's love, marriage, and even who will meet next. Like a great creator, he worked hard to keep Truman isolated from a "sick" world and live on Taoyuan Island forever. However, unfortunately, the target he chose was precisely a person who was unwilling to be manipulated by others and took life seriously, so he felt extremely hopeless after knowing the facts and resisted with all his might. When Truman walked out of the huge studio and out of the illusion people weaved, did everyone applaud him?

From birth, he has become a star of the world's attention. In today's era, it may be the dream of many people. But if one day you find out that the people around you are just acting all the time - that feeling is unimaginable. There is no real life, no real love. Suddenly I felt that it is a happy thing for ordinary people to live according to their own will. I remember that when Stefanie Sun was promoting the album "Perfect Day", there was a "Truman Show", which seemed to be in a big glass cover, and the whole day's life was presented under the flash-in fact, everyone knows that It's just a gimmick. Life under the flash, once deliberate elements are added, the original color of life will change. The eating and drinking of celebrities has become mysterious due to their special identities. At best, the Truman show satisfies the voyeuristic desire of the public. When I saw the news of Li Yapeng's fight against reporters at the airport, the attitudes of the friends around me were surprisingly unanimous - good fight, man! Perhaps, like Truman's revolt against Christopher, it is a defense of his right to liberty. One's own life does not need to be the after-dinner talk of the public, but a boring pastime for people.

It is estimated that Stefanie Sun finally couldn't stand the so-called normal business model of the company, so she became a loner and enjoyed herself. Pulling out one of her blogs, the little girl was as free and easy as her dazzling red hair back then——

I'M A HAS BEEN? IT'S OFFICIAL NOW IS IT. Bring it on darlings. If refusing to sign on to a record company means i'm a has been then so be it. I'm going my way, whether anyone else thinks it's a good idea. I'm sick of the packaging, sick of the manoeuvring of the press, sick of formulaic promotion kits, sick of lousy inflated figures. I'm going to do my thing, at my pace, and give it up for distribution to a company of my choice. I'm keeping my hair long because it belongs to me now, and singing songs that excite me, and loving every minute of my freedom.

I am no longer burdened by the unbearable lightness of being. It's great being free and I have Nicole to thank for reminding me how short life could be.

I'm going my way so bring it on.

The Truman Show quotes

  • [In the control room, Christof grabs a headset and a monitor to see Truman standing in front of the door to the real world]

    Christof: Truman.

    [Truman hears Christof's booming voice coming from the sky]

    Christof: You can speak. I can hear you.

    Truman Burbank: Who are you?

    Christof: I am the creator... of a television show that gives hope and joy and inspiration to millions.

    Truman Burbank: Then who am I?

    Christof: You're the star.

    Truman Burbank: Was nothing real?

    Christof: *You* were real. That's what made you so good to watch.

    [Truman turns back to face the door]

    Christof: Listen to me, Truman. There's no more truth out there than there is in the world I created for you. The same lies. The same deceit. But in my world, you have nothing to fear. I know you better than you know yourself.

    Truman Burbank: [insulted] You never had a camera in my head!

    Christof: You're afraid. That's why you can't leave. It's okay, Truman. I understand. I have been watching you your whole life. I was watching when you were born. I was watching when you took your first step. I watched you on your first day of school.

    [chuckles]

    Christof: The episode where you lost your first tooth.

    [smiles]

    Christof: You can't leave, Truman. You belong here... with me.

    [Truman remains silent, contemplating]

    Christof: Talk to me. Say something.

    [incredulous]

    Christof: Well, say something, goddamn it! You're on television! You're live to the whole world!

    [Truman turns back with a familiar smile]

    Truman Burbank: In case I don't see ya, good afternoon, good evening and good night.

    [false chuckle]

    Truman Burbank: Yeah.

    [Truman takes a bow and then steps through the door to Christof's astonishment]

  • Lauren: [during her forbidden date with Truman, about the show's crew] We have so little time. They're gonna be here any minute.

    Truman: Who are?

    Lauren: They don't want me talking to you.

    Truman: Then don't talk.

    [They share a long, heartfelt kiss]
