Did the concept of sex and intimacy not exist in his world or was his wife paid extra?
there was an inuniverse behind the scenes of this show. She was apparently given more noney than thr Queen of England
>Its a Truman begins asking questions about how 1% of the population own all the banks, media and news outlets episode
It was just a city bro. Besides they wouldn't have them running that fake city.
How much did he learn about the outside world? Was Truman taught about WWII and the Holocaust? Does Truman know about the existence of the state of Israel? Or was he fed a slightly different version of those stories than everyone else? Would Truman have been told about y2k? Or 9/11?
Could the Truman Show exist in a time where people are constantly connected to the internet? How long would it take for Truman to find out that nothing's real?
he wouldn't be given access to the real internet but a closed version of it
True, but people would constantly be trying to get access to it and spam that nothing's real.
>but people would constantly be trying to get access to it and spam that nothing's real.
it could be LAN based, hosted locally, with just paid shills to make up the majority of the posts
Supervisors would scrutiny real world content before it's posted on like newsites and whatnot
how much would the "supervisors" make? aren't they some kind of virtual janitors?
that happened in the dvd extras I think, people would parachute into the studio or get hired for the sake of ruining the show. Eventually yeah the cracks would show, thats what happened in the actual movie with Truman finding the stage lighting
They would've had a steady string of relationships and sex fpr him so that he never went raping.
I don't understand why they had people going in circles around his house for no reason and stuff like that. It would be easier to just have the background people in the town with whom Truman didn't need to interact live pseudo regular lives within the town instead of programming routes for them like they were npcs in GTA.
It’s to really set in how much of Truman’s life was faked and controlled by the director
It's, like, a metaphor, man. You wouldn't understand.
OK, I guess I got filtered then.

That wouldn't be good television. Everything is exaggerated to emphasize the drama in the Truman Show.
the DVD extras have interviews with the main characters and it shows that despite them being paid massive amounts, it was a psychological burden for them to actually live there and stay true to their roles. to have every person in the town live a full fake life is too much to manage. it probably is much easier to tell extras to do certain specific actions and routes. especiallh since it's an environment where unpredictability is very dangerous
>Ok I'll stay in the dome but I want a large harem of 18 years old hot as frick girls who'll do ANYTHING I want
What now homosexuals
Didn't they say they would block the shit with furniture etc when they got intimate? I think some viewer said something along those lines.
Truman Burbank is the unsuspecting star of The Truman Show, a reality television program filmed 24/7 through thousands of hidden cameras and broadcast to a worldwide audience. Christof, the show's creator and executive producer, seeks to capture Truman's authentic emotions and give audiences a relatable everyman.
As Truman was selected from birth following an unwanted pregnancy, Christof claims that Truman came to be adopted not just by the show, but by the whole "world". Truman's hometown of Seahaven Island is a complete set built within an enormous dome, populated by crew members and actors who highlight the product placements that generate revenue for the show. The elaborate set allows Christof to control almost every aspect of Truman's life, including the weather.
To prevent Truman from discovering his false reality, Christof manufactures scenarios that dissuade Truman's desire for exploration, such as the "death" of his father in a sea storm to instill aquaphobia, and by constantly broadcasting and printing messages of the dangers of traveling and the virtues of staying home. However, Christof cannot predict all of Truman's actions. During his college years, Truman was intended to fall in love with and marry co-student Meryl, but fell for Sylvia, an extra.
Although Sylvia was quickly removed from the show before she could disclose its nature to Truman, he continues to remember her, and secretly dreams of a life with Sylvia outside of his marriage to Meryl. To this end, he seeks to travel to Fiji, where he was told Sylvia's family moved. In the real world, Sylvia is a part of the "Free Truman" campaign, which fights to have Truman released from the program.
Sounds interesting. Name of the movie?

I know that's a song.
Coolidge Show
As the show approaches its 30th anniversary, Truman begins discovering unusual elements such as a spotlight falling out of the sky in front of his house and a radio channel that precisely describes his movements. These events are punctuated by the reappearance of his father, who had infiltrated the set as a beggar. Truman begins questioning his life and realizes that the city somehow revolves around him. Meryl's stress from attempting to uphold the charade in the face of Truman's growing skepticism and hostility causes their marriage to deteriorate.
One day, Truman takes Meryl by surprise by going on an impromptu road trip, but increasingly implausible emergencies block their way. During an argument ignited by Meryl attempting to advertise a product, Truman determines that Meryl is a part of the conspiracy and holds her at knife-point; she breaks character and is taken off the show. Hoping to bring Truman back to a controllable state, Christof re-introduces Truman's father to the show properly, under the guise of having lost his memory after the boating accident. This helps the show regain the ratings lead with audiences, and Truman seems to return to his routines, except he begins sleeping in his basement. One night, Truman secretly disappears through a makeshift tunnel in his basement, forcing Christof to temporarily suspend the broadcast for the first time in its history. Audiences around the world are captivated by this unexpected event, and record numbers tune in.
Whenever he got horny, the cut to commercial. Then they cut the lights and his wife was replaced with a local prostitute in a wig wearing his wives purfume. That, or they tranquilized him and when he woke up, his wife gaslighted him saying they had such exhausting sex that he passed out and doesn't remember it.
Christof orders a citywide search for Truman and is soon forced to "cue the sun" and break the production's day-night cycle to optimize the search. Christof discovers Truman sailing away from Seahaven on a small boat, having conquered his fear of water. He resumes the transmission and, unable to fetch Truman by boat, creates a violent storm in an attempt to capsize Truman’s boat. After nearly drowning Truman but failing to break his spirit, Christof ends the storm. Truman continues to sail until his boat strikes the wall of the dome.
Initially horrified, Truman discovers a nearby staircase leading to an exit door. As Truman contemplates leaving his world, Christof speaks directly to Truman through a speaker system and tries to persuade him to stay, claiming that there is no more truth in the real world than in his artificial one, where he would have nothing to fear. After a moment of reflection, Truman says his catchphrase: "In case I don't see you... good afternoon, good evening, and good night", bows to his audience and exits. The viewers celebrate his escape, and Sylvia races to greet him. Christof's supervisors finally end the program on a shot of the open exit door, leaving Christof to mourn over the truth of his defeat. Truman's fans—the viewers of the show—cheer upon his successful escape and then, after transmission ceases, ask what else is on television.
Sex is a hylic pursuit, the film is about achieving gnosis.
How long were you waiting to use those words you neo-tumblerite gaylord
What really got me was that scene when they showed that one dude in the bathtub falling asleep with Truman in the background... that's literally me but with Twitch streamers, they were on to something back then
theres some extra content that talked about sex and how his wife was basically a prostitute but otherwise there werent cameras on them when they were nude
