THE TRUMAN SHOW
All eyes on Burbank - Truman Burbank, that is. And you'll want to join the masses in taking a fresh look at this marvel of a movie from director Peter Weir (Gallipoli, Witness). Truman (Jim Carrey) is about to discover just how abnormal his seemingly "normal" life is. What he doesn't realize - just yet - is that his whole life is a reality TV show, televised and broadcast for the world to see! The creative genius of Jim Carrey (Lemony Snicket's A Series Of Unfortunate Events) will amaze and thrill you in this groundbreaking film that also features Ed Harris, Laura Linney, Noah Emmerich, Holland Taylor and Peter Krause.

BIGFANBOY.com special notes:
Director Peter Weir was ahead of his time with this social commentary on American obsession with voyeurism through television. The Truman Show becomes the ultimate in "reality" television, but begs many moral questions. Carrey did his best to prove he could play it serious, but some people didn't take to that side of the normally hysterical actor. Personally, I found this film to be poignant and in many way important. With today's reality show craze, we may sadly not be far from this type of TV. The special features have been carried over from the special edition DVD release, but they're pretty solid, and definitely make this film worth yet another look.
