The Truman Show

Peter Weir directs this comedy drama starring Jim Carrey as Truman Burbank, a man with a seemingly idyllic lifestyle, a secure job, a loving family and a peaceful home. Yet, unbeknownst to him, his entire existence has been one long television programme, the people around him Hollywood actors, the town a massive studio set, the whole show orchestrated by visionary director Christof (Ed Harris). As the truth begins to dawn on Truman, he resolves to break free, no matter the consequences for the programme's ratings.
