Big brother is watching you...

Rating: Null/10 (24 November 1998)

The overwhelming cult of the eternal vigilance we are subjected to is put to an actual event here...Truman Burbank, a typically calm and nothing-out-of-the-ordinary insurance salesman from Seahaven, US (more like Anywhere, US), is a John Doe as the rest of them...and he's being broadcasted to the whole nation, every day, every hour, every minute of his life. He was born and raised inside a giant dome, reflecting his actions and his everyday chores via-tv to all the world around him, and outside his own life. The fabulous though simple concept of the Big Brother is here actually very well written and performed by a Jim Carrey at his all-time best...the punchline of the whole film comes when Truman (Jim), says: "you don't have a camera inside my head". Well, no. But close...VERY close...
