The Truman Show (1998), directed by Peter Weir, is a brilliant satire about surveillance, reality, and free will. Jim Carrey stars as Truman Burbank, a man who slowly discovers his entire life is a televised illusion. Blending comedy, drama, and existential dread, the film questions what it means to truly live. As Truman begins to awaken, his journey becomes a quiet rebellion against a fabricated world. Insightful, emotional, and eerily prophetic—The Truman Show is a modern classic.
