How to evaluate the film The Truman Show?

The Truman Show has a fantastic plot design, which fascinates many audiences. The following is a detailed evaluation of The Truman Show:

The Truman Show shows people how an ordinary nobody was turned into a famous TV star without knowing it, but was completely deprived of freedom, privacy and even dignity, and became a victim of the mass entertainment industry.

This film reflects the hope and anxiety of human beings, and at the same time, it has attracted much attention because it touches the most sensitive social issues. With modernist artistic style, it profoundly exposes the ugly behavior of mercenary and trampling on human rights in western commercial activities, and strongly satirizes the negative side of American morality, human feelings and the world.

The film strongly criticizes the value of "media omnipotence", and implies the "caged bird" type of survival sorrow with a virtual perfect world similar to "Utopia".

The Truman Show is one of the classic masterpieces of black comedy. The film not only satirizes the indifference of morality, human feelings and the world, but also shows the skill of the creative staff in the production structure and plot setting of the whole film.

In the small town where the hero Truman lives, there are more than 5,000 cameras hidden. Truman's father, mother, friend, wife, lover, friend, colleague, classmate and even irrelevant passers-by are all actors. Truman lives completely in a huge studio.

It can be said that his world is a virtual space, but Truman's whole life is exposed to the audience all over the world for 24 hours. This little guy who was destined to be a big star was completely deprived of his freedom, privacy and dignity and became a victim of the mass entertainment industry without his knowing it. This kind of imagination is really amazing.
