Life is like a drama, drama is like life

Truman is an ordinary person, as ordinary as living by our side. He has many desires, and they are easy to satisfy. Therefore, he is sometimes ecstatic, sometimes like a concubine, and most of the time he is hesitant and depressed and at a loss. At this time, the genius director has a place to use it again. He constantly creates new stimuli, making his long drama turbulent and appetizing. He created trouble for Truman when he was happy, and when he was frustrated, he lost no time to give him a glimmer of life. He made the blonde girl suddenly appear in Truman’s sight like a romance novel, opened the valve of his lust, and let her leave suddenly, causing her to fall into a bottomless abyss; he let Truman never meet." The deceased father" suddenly appeared, and the exaggerated and funny scene of recognizing each other made his eyes burst into tears, and at the same time earned the tears of TV viewers; he also asked Truman’s close friends to care for him and enlighten him when he was in a bad mood. , Made him feel this "spring in the desert" and regain his confidence, although that friend is only an actor, and he is carrying a large number of lines...I admire the talented and extraordinary genius director in the movie. Thinking of God, and seeing that weak, exhausted, confused Truman was played with hypocrisy again and again, and still full of optimism about life and future, my heart was a bit sad, and I couldn't bear to face it—I couldn't bear it. Face a real "us"! "Life is like a play, and play is like life", the philosopher sighs, but the actors on the stage of life-do we, always have a kind of consciousness of acting? Or under the deceit and arrangement of God, doing meaningless things without selflessness? Happiness is not enough to make us love the world; frustration is not enough to make us abandon the world. God is like that genius director. He has a good grasp. He knows when to give us a head and when to set a warm stove for us. He keeps us hope in pain and in hope. To endure pain, because pain creates waves of plot and ratings, and hope is the appearance fee rewarded to us so that we will not stop midway through. At the end of the movie, Truman was awakened. He faced the camera and really stopped acting "God". The genius director panicked and he would lose the audience. He tried his best to keep Truman and told him that it was dangerous to leave the world controlled by the director, but Truman still walked out of the door and walked into the dark unknown world. Said that no matter what was waiting for him in that world, he didn't care. Buddhism has the term "epiphany" and says that the human nature is self-sufficient and complete, and it is the dust of the world that covers it and makes it lost. It seems that Truman has had an epiphany. He has retrieved the lost self, the self-sufficient and free nature.

    Truman’s mental quality is so good, he was gentle and gentle until the moment of the curtain call. I wanted him to be rude, and if I changed it, I would have broken down a long time ago.

    I would rather bear the cruel reality than live the false happiness.

The Truman Show quotes

  • Bus Driver: [unable to get the ferry moving] I'm usually the bus driver!

    Production Assistant: [into his radio] Bottom line is they can't drive the boat. They're actors!

  • Truman's Mother: [looking through a photo album] Here's us at Mount Rushmore. Do you remember, Truman? When Dad was still with us? That was quite a drive, you slept the whole way there.

    Truman: [looking closer at the old photo of himself as a boy with his parents in front of an inaccurate mock-up of Mount Rushmore] It looks so small.

    Truman's Mother: [quickly turning the page] Things always do when you look back, darling.
