CLIP DESCRIPTION:
To distract Truman (Jim Carrey) from his recent discoveries and suspicions, Christof (Ed Harris) orchestrates the return of Truman's father and creates a moving television moment in the process.
FILM DESCRIPTION:
Peter Weir directed this comedy-drama, a commentary on all-pervasive media manipulation. Scripted by Andrew M. Niccol (Gattaca), the film plays like a combination of the British TV series The Prisoner and Paul Bartel's The Secret Cinema. Truman Burbank (Jim Carrey) is unaware that his entire life is a hugely popular 24-hour-a-day TV series. In this real-time documentary, every moment of Truman's existence is captured by concealed cameras and telecast to a giant global audience. His friends and family are actors who smile pleasantly at Truman's familiar catchphrase greeting, "In case I don't see you later, good afternoon, good evening, and good night!" Employed at an insurance company, Truman is married to merry Meryl (Laura Linney), and they live in the cheerful community of Seahaven, an island "paradise" where the weather is always mild and no unpleasantness intrudes. This is the basic situation of the series, which has grown over the years into a billion-dollar franchise for the TV network. As an unwanted pregnancy, Truman was adopted by the network and raised in the zoolike environment of a TV soundstage. Thus, the TV audience became hooked when Truman was very young. Now, at age 30, he still doesn't know he's a prisoner on an immense domed city-size soundstage, simulating Seahaven. Both the illusion and the ratings will collapse if Truman ever leaves Seahaven. In addition to elaborate events staged to make sure he stays put, Truman is given constant reminders of how wonderful Seahaven is compared to dangers in other parts of the world. However, his growing suspicions make him curious enough to try to leave, and the show's director and master manipulator Christof (Ed Harris) must constantly devise ways to thwart Truman's escape attempts. To enter the harbor, Truman must overcome his fear of water, intentionally instilled in him when his father "died" in a boating accident and was written out of the script. Exteriors were filmed in the Victorian-styled upscale community of Seaside, Florida. In addition to the Burkhard Dallwitz score, original music by Philip Glass and classical excerpts are also featured.

I hope Truman gets a good lawyer when he gets out to sue the crap out of them
They'd be lining up for miles. He could and would quite literally sue for billions.
jeffg24LT21 Truman would've been slaughtered and the public would've been told that he drowned
Sam Koubaisy he will be the lawyer. Liar Liar. 😊
Sorry I am a little confused is he trap in a machine to make him think he is in a t.v. show
The network OWNS him though. His real mother didn't want him.
Some might be fooled into thinking he is crying because he's so happy to be reunited with his father. But he's really crying because he's now realizing that even his own father was fake.
That “dad” hits different
@Tanjirio 24 he hugged him to hear staff members talking from the dads earpiece so he could confirm that everything is fake.
@@waryemezez3369 really?
@@waryemezez3369 deep theory
@Minecraft Jesus Gaming This will came into reality or a norm when an overwhelming number of couples from the LGBTQ community start having their conceived/biological baby (precisely anything apart from adoption).
The realisation of whole existence as a lab experiment is scary asf.
I never realised as a kid that this was the moment that he truly 'knew'. He was playing along, saying what he thought they wanted to hear ('I never stopped believing'), and the look on his face when they hugged wasn't relief, it was anguish.
As a kid, I didn't know how to process this scene but, I knew something just was off about this whole "dad" thing. 🤔
Wow! Truman's a good actor.
@Dan Savka Why do you not?
@Dan Savka He did see him earlier as the hobo. Considering that he was suspecting it just then, and his best friend was trying to tell him otherwise, his father just happens to show up at the right moment to distract him. If the emotion is real, it's probably heart break.
I really don't believe that's the right interpretation for the scene, I really think that's missing the whole point.
That is so horribly cruel. This is nightmarish.
Exactly they could have made such a Beautiful film out of it but nope reality tv show that has trapped the mainstar in what could be considered to be insanity. Because this is the only scene that is special due to the moment
H they actually gave him a good life. But I agree
H I came here after binging on videos about North Korea. I was reminded of this scene after they discussed the family reunions; where once every few years, both sides will bring families who were separated by the Korean War to visit eachother.
The South Koreans are decent enough to give them their privacy, but the North Koreans will often exploit these reunions for propaganda purposes; often with the same zooming in and out and with the same type of sad-yet-inspiring music.
John Lemon What's a good, comfortable life without true free will?
The irony is even in real life a big part of our lives is fake and because of the world around us around us many of our choices are not our own choices at all,at least the manipulating agents of trumans world had his mental and physical wellbeing in mind
1:27 christof being moved by his own work always cracks me up. but this scene also makes me so sad. it’s beautiful but disgusting to think about humans treating each other this way
I'm sorry to burst the seriousness of this but that moment cristo looks like a mixture of an overzealous puppy or somebody that's just jizzed himself... Just saying what I see
It's like he is jizzing his pants with fear and confusion .
He looked like he was getting off on his own 'genius'
Christoff is acting like that because he captured a genuine moment of human happiness... under his direction, which is the kind of stuff most directors can only dream of doing with real actors.
Sadly it happens in Hollywood (and online) all the time.
This is fantastic meta-commentary on the nature of emotional manipulation in film and TV.
@ mmmm sarcasm...😜
stfu... use smalller words
And this is exactly why this movie didn't win an Oscar.
The commentary is pretty straight forward.
Emotional manipulation on the audience you mean?
1:24 I always love Ed Harris' reaction in this scene, it's like he's getting some sort of high off of creating his "art" of manipulating Truman
Getting high off manipulating someone- typical narcissist
Yeah I love movie villains like this which aren’t you’re archetypical movie villains but maybe the kind of dudes you’d hate in real life.
It’s kind of a relatable moment when you finish a passion project and everything comes together perfectly
So long as you ignore how horrible the whole situation is 😂
this scene hit me hard first times i watch it, when i was a little kid...
i believe its an lil homage to cinema its creting process
I like how Christoff has Truman's dad hidden in the fog while Marlon and Truman are talking and Marlon's like "I found him for you Truman. I just told him to chill out while we talked to make his appearance more dramatic and emotional"
Yep it was so ridiculous and contrived that Truman didn't fall for it and instead it finally pulled the wool away from his eyes.
Marlon didn't even have a reasonable excuse for having found Truman's father, like, "I ran into him today on my route. He told me his story and asked for my help."
Gosh, all the characters (exept Truman and this girl who wants him free) are so despicable
It's like the only movie/show I watched where only two characters aren't antagonists and everyone else is
Marconator What about Norbit?
What about the guy who explodes out of the Christmas present at the beginning
There was a deleted scene where his "friend" (can't remember his name) finds him when he's trying to escape and tells everyone he isn't there, and it's implied the friend drinks so much as a coping mechanism for deceiving the person he's grown up with.
Even the viewers are hypocrites.
This scene absolutely disgusts me. It's brilliant, yet f-ed up.
John Feather bad word
John Feather. I would like but I do not want to ruin the 666 likes. Perfect.
@@TheKaiTetley it is now 888
It was the moment that confirmed to Truman he was being played. He played along to it so as to stop them from giving him to much attention.
I forgot how twisted this movie is lol.
Ed Harris directed the shit out of this scene!
+Nitin Santosh So tru
+X-Plane Aviation
Don't you mean so truMAN ha, I'll escort myself out now.
best scene ever for Ed Harris .. holy shit
Damn straight he did! 🤣
Harris is very, very powerful in this entire film, but nowhere so much as in this single moment. It's an absolute victory for him, both in- and out-of-character.
I think at this point he already knows, this moment probably even cemented his resolve even further. Seeing this as a perverse mind game, a cruel twist. Nothing is real, not even his fathers death.
Oh yeah he definitely knew something was up, he probably didn’t know it was a tv show until he made it to the wall but he knew something was wrong.
He must have since Sylvia on the beach. But once he notices things like the bike, the flowers and car etc he knows it’s just accepting it before you can do anything. He notices the same routine in town, the same faces everyday in the same positions,, it’s all to perfect.
Yeah this sealed the deal that this is fake
This Movie's So Fucked Up That It's Brilliant!!
Kakarot The Super Saiyan I’m 10 so saying F#%$ is so inappropriate
you think it was just a movie oh no it was MUCH more then that at the end of this so called movie was when jim carrey escaped and broke free from the control of illuminati and thats what makes this movie so beautiful............unfortunetly..........that was then.......since then the illuminati trapped him in his own mind making him think he dosint exist that hes just a character ......i hope to one day help him find the exit again just like the end of this movie before its too late
The other irony of this scene is that it eradicated Truman's fear of the ocean, this enabling him with the courage to escape.
Bad word
@@Popblue62 ok
This show can easily be a Black Mirror episode.
thatoneguy black mirror probably took inspiration from this movie
Well this is basically The Twilight Zone movie and Black Mirror is basically The Twilight zone. It goes around. :D
its okay to be inspired. but people who watch black mirror are like rick and morty viewers who have never seen a comedy before lol
white bear
It's Gogglebox
I was starting to cry, but when it cut to Christof I got super angry and frustrated. The music actually makes you feel bad for Truman rather than giving you happy tears like it's supposed to do.
Secret Agent Michael Lee I think the fake audience is intended to have the tears of joy; we as the real audience are meant to feel annoyed at whats happening to Truman, I think anyway.
What's interesting is that the audience in the film, like us, genuinely care for Truman. If it were real, this would be a massively positive moment in Truman's life, but it isn't real, and yet the "audience" are completely oblivious to the manipulation going on.
“Fade up music”
That part killed me the first time I saw it. It’s the moment you realize the movies soundtrack is in on the grift. It just gives you an even further understanding as to the depths that Truman is being manipulated.
I love how Christof thought that by writing his "dad" back into the show, Truman would be back to getting controlled. But in reality, it backfired and gave the opposed effect: it only gave him confirmation that his entire life is a lie.
But at the same time, that's kinda heartbreaking because that means he's not crying because he's reunited with his "dad"; he's crying he now understands that his "dad" and everyone else he has known his entire life (except Lauren) is in on it.
That's not how I interpreted it. I saw Truman's crying as basically an act for the camera. Same as when he talks to the mirror the day he escapes.
The way Christoff just sees this scene as an accomplishment and is only concerned with how dramatic the moment is was disgusting. It perfectly shows how crazy he is for not seeing or refusing to acknowledge that Truman has feelings and they are being torn apart.
but he did accomplish something, he gave people what they wanted, a character that they could relate and empathize in his struggle, if truman is the hero, then he must serve as the villian, thats the irony. Christoff is the character with the least control over himself. He has the world in his hands but he can't stop the whims of audiences, his ego, and the hand of fate from making him into the villian he is.
it's funny and sad because of how pretentious it is, but also because of how manipulative they are to him.
More like evil.
Also because they want to maximize on ratings.
I think the musician in this scene is the actual composer of the music in this movie!
***** Good catch, that's Philip Glass himself!
no tis not i dont think he is in another scene with curly hair
Wow.
It's not Philip Glass. He was 60 at the time this movie was made.
Burkhard Dallwitz?
Hmm, I think at this point in the film, Truman realizes his whole life has been a sham. Right before this part of the scene, we see Truman realizing, "...If everyone's in on it, so is his best bud." (Thanks, Jeremy Davis, I actually never realized this before I read your comment) You can see in his face that he absolutely destroyed by his new found reality, then the best friend springs his dad on him out of nowhere, and he has this dejected look on his face. He knows, and yeah. I dunno. Ed Harris and his crew think they have this beautiful dramatic moment, but it is the beginning of their downfall, fucking pompous pieces of shits.
sbirdhouse : yup, their little village just jumped the shark... plus accidently wiped Truman's fear of the ocean out
@@johnkelly90 The ocean thing never really twigged until reading your comment. Yes true, by bringing his dad back it removed his fear of the ocean. They totally ballsed up and didn't realise.
@VoltDenatsu Who’s watching the watchers? You are, and watchers are as clueless as they think you are. 😒 Winning...
But what other evidence is there. Yes, he is at his breaking point but there's also gotta be evidence afterwards to support this interpretation.
this is the moment the villain is revealed and god this is the strongest hatred i have ever felt for a movie character
i love how moved the director gets by his own work. he sees truman as his masterpiece, and also as his son. you can tell in other scenes when he "brushes" trumans hair through the screens and stuff.
Not as his son, but as his object. He doesn’t show love for Truman’s humanity, otherwise he wouldn’t have manipulated or even almost kill him, he shows love for an object he created and that is his to control, failing to realize that the “object” has a mind that wasn’t owned by him.
Jim Carrey should focus his career on drama
The guy is golden
yeah just hop back 20 years in your time machine and let him know.
Eternal Sunshine was one of those gems
Nice pfp
@@AC-iz7eh One of my favorite movies of all time, regardless of genre.
He tried and that sunked his carrier, watch the movie Number 23, Jim made a great dramatic role but the people viewed him as a comedian so it didnt got good reception
It always makes me laugh how his friend supposedly found his father when he's only a clerk in a shop.
"I never stopped believing"
He had never stopped believing in the validity of his world
The 90s and early 2000s made some cool experimental movies. Being John Malkovich, Adaptation, Eternal Sunshine, Pleasantville, Bruce Almighty….In fact, Jim Carrey did a lot of the weird ones. Cable Guy too
cable guy rules
I think christof was brilliant in this scene.
Douglas Guzman I concur, Ed Harris's acting was phenomenal. No wonder he received an Academy Award nomination for his role.
"Years I've wasted... I'll make it up to you, son.... I swear."
they really threw the hail mary at Truman to try and keep him convinced.
Beautiful music score.💧
The score, is just brilliant here.
It reminds me of so many social media clips these days that are manipulated to get the desired reaction. We’ve become much worse now because everyone who has a smartphone can do this. Think of those reunions that are set up with a camera always in the background.
1:36 she freaks me out.
Also this scene made me realize that Us watching this movie, is actually just watching the Truman show like the people in the movie.
also batshit crazy directors.
Yep. I don't know who is sicker--the people making the show or the people watching it with rapt attention.
This is one of the most touching scenes in the movie. The director was like a conductor, totally orchestrated the cameras, music and background ambience to perfection!
An epic cinematic achievement. The father-son reunion is utterly shattering in its depiction of human pathos and how it rivals with cunning human professionalism and how even professionalism gives in to tears. Christof actually feels for his 'reel' son and is visibly moved while he is orchestrating the seminal scene for his TV show, moving the puppet-strings (as it were) and controlling 'real' human emotions welling up from Truman's soul. Even cold-hearted precision bows before emotional trauma, being tested to the very brink.
1:25
When you build a model for your school project and it doesn't collapse
Love Truman's blank stare at 1:19. He was suspicious but now he's dead certain his suspicions are true, and he's just gonna play along for now.
And then he starts crying because he has confirmation that even his father and his best friends were fake.
Oh the beauty & the tragedy. The beauty of truman's honest bare emotions...and the tragedy that both his best friend and 'father' could agree to such betrayal. This music conveys both perfectly. Love this music, love this scene. Moves me every time.
I can’t tell what more terrifyingly cruel. Faking his father just for plot. Or making him scared of crossing water, just so he can’t leave.
ive seen countless films of brutal torture, eval demons and psychological pain but i dont know why but this scene disturbs me the most scene
rowley1001 yep, :/ worst than salt in my eyes, drinking bleach and a kick in the b@ll$
Gaslighting in some ways can be worse than physical torture.
The ending of that recent Star Wars film reminded me so much of this scene. Perhaps because it's so transparently manipulative and tugs at the feels.
I feel this is better because Mark Hamil says jack all.
Luke Skywalker dies.
Ed Harris is hands-down the best part of this film. He takes the 'production' to an entirely different place.
I've watched this film 4 times in as many days and have to agree. I still want to believe his best friend - he comes across as so genuine. His has got to be the best acting in the whole 'film within the film' thing.
There's a small part of me that wants to believe that Walter Moore truly thought of Truman as his son. And more than anything wanted to see him again. That was why he broke back on to the set.
Christof is the embodiment of coperate greed and not caring for the well being of others but themselves
You almost forget how meta this is.. Huge props to Jim Carrey for this brilliant work of art.
1:39 chozen turned his life around
Christof really gets off on this. Not only was this a masterpiece and groundbreaking, it seriously called it in terms of how degenerating TV would really get.
1:39 in the upper left corner it says "TRUMAN" in Japanese
+CeruleanFilms how? truman is a name, not a word.
It's his name as rendered in Japanese katakana writing.
+CeruleanFilms yeah - it says "every day, Truman" and the chick goes, "yokatta", like, "I'm so glad." Damn, the attention to detail in this movie
+Edouard Imbert It's a film about making TV. Of course it would be a blast to make
Masterful scene. One of the best movies I've ever seen, with such an amazing story
This show is responsible for many years of my childhood I thought was scripted and thought I was constantly being watched 👀
This brought tears to my eyes.. Their is many REAL people in this World not knowing their real father's which is the sad truth. At this moment Truman knew it wasn't his real father which broke his heart further..
This film was a masterpiece back then and still is even now !
Philip Glass's work, is just superb!!
Oh is it? I didn't know! ... The soundtrack is bomb, it's not surprising.
I'm crying not because of the movie but because this was 1998 and now reflecting on my life back then.
This part made me feel sick when I first watched it
and the two old lezbos.
God I hate emotional manipulation. Why I never really cry during movies.
+Marvel Mania I cant watch this without crying
Oh I didnt mean to be offensive.
There is a difference between You leting Yourself live the movie which was created for entertainment or closing Yourself off of emotional manipulation which is supposed to harm You. (Like an abusive relationship for example)
an emotional scene in a movie = emotional manipulation? ok.
@@smokeypillow
Technically it is emotional manipulation as the director manipulates you into feeling sad, happy or angry.
So it's right, from a certain point of view
Ed Harris is unbelievably great in this scene!
Truman isn't crying because he's moved by reunion with his "father". He's crying because his suspicion that he's been manipulated his whole life were just confirmed...
"I never stopped believing." Similar to "I'll cross my fingers for you," it's a double meaning - stopped, i.e. past tense, because even as he realized that his whole life was being scripted he never stopped believing that his "parents" were real - until this moment. He probably thought his father had been imprisoned by "them", but now he knows the truth is much darker.
I never saw this movie. What did happen to his real parents and how did he end up on this tv show world?
@@michellemckillop5712 His "parents" (or someone that controlled them) sold him to the corporation that runs the TV.

This entire movie is absolutely brilliant and frighteningly prophetic.
i wish i could hug my dad one more time
Damn, the filmmakers were absolutely ruthless. Almost every single emotional moment in the movie was tarnished by the cutaways to behind the scenes. Like watching footage of a factory farm while eating your lunch.
A decade later we have all these so called Reality Shows following so called celebrities.
@Studio Autio But the bigger picture is just how invested other people are in watching the lives of other people. Essentially, without the interest of viewers "The Truman Show" would not have continued.
Me, I understand but don't sympathize. I don't watch reality TV. It irritates the crap out of me. I'm normally the one person out of the 10 people in a room who doesn't watch reality TV. 😂
This is my favorite movie for a reason. These scenes are just… *chef’s kiss*
The scene is brutal, it shows how people can manipulate other people's feelings for their own gain without the sense of remorse.
Not only is jim amazing in this scene but you can see the passion and love for his work on eds face
This is my one nitpick with this brilliant movie. I would've liked at least one scene of Truman talking with his father.
hongquiao this guy probably isnt even his real father
+megazion34 Maybe not, but that guy was Truman's dad.
hongquiao Nice picture
He’s not the film says Truman was one of many babies that had to be given up once they were born and he won out
It doesn't matter if he is his biologic father (which he isn't), the whole point was that he had fatherly feelings for him, heck albeit even as actor he raised him for years. It's a genuine feeling from the actor in a fake world.
The scene talking with him... yeah it would have been difficult. At this point, Truman knew already in his head his whole world is fake and played along to get his escape chance.
When he said "I never stopped believing", did he mean that he never stopped believing his life was a lie?
I take it as Truman is playing along with the drama of this "long lost father" storyline. He's not buying it. He realizes this means his entire life is a lie.
He still meant that he never stopped believing his dad was still alive, but over the course of what he had discovered he realised he had been completely manipulated into grieving over a 'death' everyone else had known was faked.
Now they bring the dad back as a last resort to keep him from trying to leave.
'I never stopped believing' feels more like he's saying that he kept hope up the whole time that his dad was still alive but that hope was wasted when it meant nothing since they're clearly pulling every single string to manipulate him into not going.
There's no doubt The Truman Show is amazing. It gives a good message, and it makes people like me question to if I would love to live in a world where everything was very happy without the worry of anything bad happening.
It's in our nature to be ready for something to happen, whether its good or bad. These days, things aren't the greatest, and I would love to see more movies that are similar to this.
He is, isn't he? Love the way that even he is touched in this scene by the perfect deception he has just pulled off! It is incredible.
This scene is so disgusting and so brilliant on so many levels it's unbelievable. Easily one of the most vile things to be ever put on film. No physical violence, no blood, no gore, no murder. It's just cruelty and evil on a totally different level.
It feels so cruel because it is truly our lives in this world. It is an illusion, a cruel veil pulled over our eyes by the ego blocking the truth of God
@@theself5738 ???
Yeah. Psychological torture is more subtle, but is still so extremely fu*ked up.
I hate and love this scene at the same time
0:58 she's so beautiful
Looks like a dude with a wig
@@carlossosa1359 literally though it does
Thanks for that. I checked out Wikipedia which was interesting. The background to his character (Marlon) is amazing. I agree that whereas he 'goes along' with the entire TRUMAN deception, he does feel overwhelmingly guilty about it.
Ed Harris was brilliant in this movie. A miniscule conductor riveting in his work with great passion.
imagine all the Oscars and awards Truman probably won without even realizing it
Arguably the greatest movie to be ever made.
Neil Tomlinson not even close bro
This scene didn't hit me until the 5-6th time seeing it. Absolutely despicable and perfect in almost everyway. Ed Harris and Jim Carrey BOTH soared above in this scene
This film made me realise that it isn't just the inside world of Truman that is sick, but the world looking in at Truman's world. They
Knew he was kept there since a baby and only one person on the set thought it was wrong. We would watch anything for our own fickle attention spans and twisted entertainment.
Yes. Like you’re doing to me now. Difference is, Jim Carrey’s character was just a man. I’m so much more.
THE FEELS!!!!!!!
"So glad I found you after all these years.. Ok stand right here in the middle of the fog and walk slowly towards us later"
It was like a great composer living in the moment at 1:27. Epic joy of a job well done!
This is definitely a psychology, bittersweet, dark, & chilling film.
21 yrs after this movie and now all of us are Truman.
I feel so bad for Truman
Damn, now I gotta see this masterpiece again
This scene did bring a tear to my eye BUT it’s fucked up how it’s all a lie to him
Nickchan 1 the only best part of the movie is when he escapes and says in case I don't see ya line
Nickchan 1 bad word
It’s incredible to think that this movie only has two likable characters.
The tragedy is, Truman’s tv father and christoph are most likely better then the birth father who along with the mother sold Truman or whatever went on.
Well that's assuming the birth father was ever told, or if he was dead.
@@The_Evening_Sun yeah good point. Heck it might even be that he died and Truman’s mother sold him because she was in a desperate situation.
Or maybe Christtoff was his father. The end scene he really showed how he "cared" about him.
@@argadargad9128 Yeah. Either that or a family friend or colleague,
I have inspired a lot of people to become a TV star since the 70s Paul Rand here I am the Truman show
Ed Harris is just an otherworldly actor and always has been.
I never realised until recently that Truman wasn't crying because he was reunited with his father, he was crying because he realised that even his father was acting and didn't actually love him.
DAT MUSIC...this movie can make you cry just with that music at 1:08
If this really happened there would be a fair share of people who would find Truman's circumstance illegal and inhumane.
I used to tear up seeing this scene, mostly because of how effective this scene is and how effortlessly Jim pulls this off without going off the rails. However, in the current anything-goes principle that the media live by, this scene make me angry by- perhaps prophetically - showing how low they can stoop to, just so they can create some juicy, sensational content.
Best sountrack.
This is...beyond evil.
Jim such a brilliant actor
This part was just evil
In this scene do you think Truman starts to suspect that even his best friend and father are part of the conspiracy?!
I do
And thats what makes it so emotional for me
I just realized that the man at 1:40 is Chozen from Karate Kid II and Cobra Kai
This had great potential for a sequel showing the aftermath of all this and Truman adjusting to the real world.
Wouldn't do it for me, the whole point of the movie is that after leaving the studio we're no longer supposed to know even ourselves what happens to Truman.
Lol watch the movie again, the whole view was supposed to be seen through creators camera
