Publication Date 05-06-1998

Comments Glowing film review of The Truman Show. Very well written.
Synopsis Mainly discusses the narrative of the film. Begins with a definition of "trumania" to give readers who haven't seen the film a feel for what it's about. Praises the screenplay, cinematography, set and props. Describes the story as "engrossing", and applauds Weir's impeccable timing in "poking holes" in the deception surrounding Truman's existence. Also praises the performances of Ed Harris, Laura Linney, Natascha McElhone, Holland Taylor and Noah Emmerich.
