Amond's film review takes a surprising angle, and the blurred line between reality and fantasy is defined not like a comedy film review, but rather a metaphysical philosophical work, and like a science fiction movie review, which is really interesting.

But I have to admit that Armond's views have won the agreement of many people, and similar ideas have appeared in almost everyone to a greater or lesser extent, deep or shallow. Along with Armond's interpretation, "Truman's World" can be viewed from another angle, which is really a very interesting thing: from the comedy movie to see the taste of science fiction.

Amund's film review published in the "New York Times", accompanied by a perfect score of 100 points, Ammond sent his highest praise, for such a comedy movie, such an evaluation is almost unimaginable, even in the entire film history, the works of countless comedy masters are difficult to reach such a height, which is also an important embodiment of the limitations of comedy films.

On the other hand, the famous Roger Ebert was no exception to publish his film review in the "Chicago Sun" for the first time, the film critic who has always adhered to an objective and authoritative attitude, after the premiere, before writing a film review, he told the reporters who came to interview, "I am very amazed by Hugo's eye for films." ”

From this sentence, you can see Roger's attitude towards "Truman's world".

In fact, Roger once again gave "Truman's World" a perfect score of 100 points, and gave a full four-star high recommendation, even Roger himself couldn't help but sigh, "I can't remember the first time I gave Hugo Lancaster's work a perfect score and four stars, but I believe that this will still not be the last." ”

"Liberty unto death, glory unto death", Roger wrote this review with such a very iconic title, in fact, the title is willing to be "Freedom or Death; Glory or death", which is in contrast to Hugo's band glory to death, which also shows the tone of the whole review.

"'Truman's World' is a contest between human nature and the cruelty of society.

Voyeurism is the catharsis of the evil and dirty thoughts in the human heart, which originates from the darkness, but appears in every corner of our lives in the open, because deep in everyone's heart hides this psychology that is close to perversion. That's how gossip and paparazzi were born, and even more so the 'reality show' that actually appeared for the first time in 1994.

It is because of the dark voyeurism of the human heart. Desire, we are like the audience in 'Truman's world', with a strong desire to peek into Truman's every move in life, and the more than 5,000 hidden lenses are the eyes we dream of in real life. So, in order to satisfy human desires. Hopefully, for the sake of a steady stream of profits, someone has come up with the brilliant idea of adopting a newborn baby and imprisoning him, and then building a perfect world for him to have the whole world peek into his life. Except for him, everything is fake, it's just an actor.

For viewers, it's a TV show; But for this baby, he lives in a lie.

Truman Burbank has become the carrier of greed, desire, fear and darkness in the whole society, carrying all the dark sides on this person openly. But hide in stealing. Peep. Desire. Behind the scenes, people ignore a very important thing: it is better to steal. Glimpse into the true essence of human desire. Hope is selfishness, which can be said to be selfishness or self-reliance, but in the final analysis, it is to establish an independent self, get rid of all shackles, get rid of all control, and live out bravely to be self-reliant. When all the dark side becomes the shackles that bind the wings, the human nature will explode, trying to break free from all the shackles and rediscover itself.

We call it, freedom.

Truman has dreamed of adventure since he was a child, hoping to explore the world that Magellan has not been able to explore, and the program producer strangled this dream in the cradle with the blow of the teacher and the barking of the vicious dog, but obviously this is not enough, so the program team let Truman's father be shipwrecked, and even let Truman witness all this happening, such a cruel method is very effective, so that Truman is completely afraid of the sea.

The production team of the program controlled Truman's mind in this way, in a divine way, thinking that in this way they could suppress human nature and allow Truman to spend his life on paradise island with peace of mind. They control every detail of Truman's world, except for Truman, everyone in his life is an actor, from the homeless man on the street to the owner of the newsstand, from the next-door neighbor to the company colleague, from his family to his wife to his best friends, from his family to friendship to love, and even the sunrise and sunset, rain and snow are under control.

More than 5,000 cameras monitor Truman's life from all aspects, allowing all viewers in the world to see the bits and pieces of Truman's life, and also allowing the program team to control Truman's world from all corners, but there is only one camera missing - the camera in Truman's brain, which is also a field that humans cannot reach, and it is also a field that God cannot control.

This is precisely the only loophole in 'Truman's world'.

Truman is a person, a living person, a being of a soul with the ability to think independently. Even if nothing unexpected happens, Truman's heart can feel those emotional differences, and it all starts with love.

Behind the seemingly perfect and happy married life, there is always a lingering emptiness, his wife is like a delicate Barbie doll, but there is no vitality, he longs to be able to get a response from his wife, but he always shouts to the empty valley, so Truman began to look for inner emotional refuge. Perhaps, the first love of 'Lauren' is just a symbol, after many years, he has long forgotten the true meaning of that relationship, but this symbol is the only real warmth that Truman has ever touched in his heart. Just like Fiji is to Truman, and Lauren is to Truman, it's just a dream in life, a vague but real dream.

Truman has been struggling to find the answer, but he can't clear the fog in front of him, staggering forward, but he is still unwilling to give up. The program team tried to play God, control Truman's life, control Truman's emotions, and control Truman's thoughts, but they forgot that even God cannot control human emotions and thoughts.

The cracks in the virtual world began to gradually widen, the alienation of love, the deception of family affection, and the betrayal of friendship...... Truman's scarred heart had become hollow. At this time, Truman really realized the desire of his heart: this is a false world, a world full of lies, although he does not know what is going on, but he knows that everything around him is false, and the perfect life piled on top of these countless falsehoods is meaningless, like a castle in the sky, a mirage in the desert.

Even his own existence is false.

Only by breaking free from this bondage can he embrace freedom and find his true self. So, Truman chose to leave. The funny thing is that the program team once again played the role of God: storms, raging tsunamis, wave after wave to stop Truman. But Truman, who has overcome his fear of the sea, desires freedom above all else, and he would rather choose death than return to that 'Truman's world', which is someone else's world, not his.

The whole world knows that this is a reality show, but except for a woman, no one wants to tell him the truth, as the program team said, the world is sick. But we would rather live in a sick world than be a puppet in this sick world: there is no privacy, no personality, no dignity, no freedom. Even if this is a perfect life, even if this is a paradise, after losing oneself, it is just a soulless walking corpse.

If we refuse to leave our fate in the hands of others and let ourselves decide the direction of our destiny, then everyone can become the director of their own life, not an actor in someone else's world - because in someone else's world, we can't have anything real, let alone really own what belongs to us, including family, friendship and love.

In the end, Truman broke free from the shackles and resolutely walked towards the dark exit, facing the unpredictable future, embracing the freedom that truly belonged to him for the first time in thirty years of life.

Your own life, your own thoughts, your own ideals, and your own freedom are more important than anything else, because it is only your own soul that governs you, and here, no strange person can control. When you have freedom, the world can be infinite, and you can write your own script with enough freedom, so that the life directed can be flesh and blood, and freedom will inject soul into life, so that life has different colors.

For the sake of freedom, even if it is at the expense of life, it will not hesitate. Because this is the nature of human beings, if we lose our freedom, then life will lose its meaning of existence.

This has always been a constant theme in human life, from Martin Luther King Jr. to Betty Friedan. Friedan), from slave society to capitalism, from 'One Flew Over the Asylum' to 'The Shawshank Redemption'...... In the contest between human nature and the cruelty of society, it is always the desire for freedom that wins.

If someone tries to play the role of God, uses forceful means to control the lives of others, uses his own outlook on life, worldview, and values to force others to obey his orders, and uses the so-called fate to stifle human nature...... Then that's the real pathetic.

And hidden behind this pathetic is the use of this 'right' to satisfy the selfishness of human beings. Desire, the spirit of entertainment to death to the extreme, this is the beginning of social degeneration, which will be the whole society rotten, decayed, collapsed. The world is falling apart, and it is happening right now! ”
