Truman Show, The

(TV-PG-L) (1998) Comedy, Drama, Psychological
Jim Carrey, Noah Emmerich, Laura Linney

He's the star of the show--but he doesn't know. Jim Carrey as Truman Burbank in this movie from director Peter Weir about a man whose life is a nonstop TV show. Truman doesn't realize that his quaint hometown is a giant studio set run by a visionary producer/director/creator (Ed Harris), that folks living and working there are Hollywood actors, that even his incessantly bubbly wife is a contract player. Gradually, Truman gets wise. And what he does about his discovery will have you laughing, crying and cheering.

Memorable Quotes:

Truman: The early bird gathers no moss! The rolling stone catches the worm!

Truman: Good morning, and in case I don't see ya, good afternoon, good evening, and good night!
