THE TRUMAN SHOW -- LITTLE MOVIES |
|
directed by Peter Weir
Christof: We have become bored with watching actors give us phony emotions. We're tired of pyrotechnics and special effects. While the world he inhabits is, in some respects, counterfeit, there's nothing fake about Truman himself. No scripts, no cue cards. It isn't always Shakespeare, but it's genuine. It's a life.
Truman: I'm not going to make it. You're going to have to go on without me. No way, mister! You're going to the top of this mountain, broken legs and all.
Christof: We find many viewers leave him on all night for comfort.
Truman: You're crazy, you know that?
Meryl: Well, for me there is no difference between a private life and a public life. My life is my life, is the Truman Show. The Truman Show is a lifestyle. It's a noble life. It is a truly blessed life.
Truman: Yeah, tell me something I don't know. Alright, promise me one thing, though. If I die before I reach the summit, you'll use me as an alternative source of food. Oooh, gross!
Marlon: It's all true. It's all real. Nothing here is fake. Nothing you see on this show is fake. It's merely controlled.
Truman: Eat me, damn it! That's an order! Maybe just your love handles. I have love handles. Yeah, little ones.
Meryl: Truman! You're going to be late!
Truman: Okay! Ha.

Sirius (9 Canis Major
Radio Announcer: Here's a news flash, just in. An aircraft in trouble began shedding parts as it flew over Seahaven just a few moments ago. Oh, wow. Luckily, no one was hurt. But, hey! How do you feel today?
Truman: Hmm. Radio Announcer: That's good. Are you thinking of flying somewhere? Truman: Nope.
Radio Announcer: Oh, good! This is Classical Live at Classical Drive, so why don't you forget about the perils of flying, settle back, and let this music calm you down.
Man: Dog Fancy, please. Errol: Thank you very much.
Truman: Give me a paper there, will you Errol? Oh and one of these for my wife, ultra fashion mags.
Errol: Will that be all for you, Truman?
Truman: That's the whole kit and kaboodle! Errol: Catch ya, later. Truman: Yeah.
Man: Good morning. Truman: Hank! Hank: Good morning, Truman!
