tearjerker director

Chapter 450 Truman's Life Is Live Broadcast Every Day

On the big screen, the Huaguo UnionPay advertisement has always served as a background board.

And the shot at this time is also very interesting, it is shot from upwards and downwards, which makes the twins look a little funny.

However, what is even more sad is that Truman obviously didn't know that he had inadvertently cooperated with the two supporting actors in an advertisement.

He also greeted them warmly, and was still trying to sell insurance to the two supporting actors.

This also reveals Truman's occupation, he is an insurance salesman of Huaguo PICC!
This also confirms why when Truman greeted his neighbors at the beginning, he would say: "Maybe we won't see each other later, so let's wish you good afternoon and good night!"

This also makes the audience look forward to the follow-up plot even more.

A movie is not an advertisement. With a great idea, it needs to be derived and expanded, and take this idea as the core of the story to show the plot!

This is a test of the ability of the director and screenwriter.

When Truman came to the company, he suddenly called the Fiji Islands Service secretly and asked if a girl named Sophia had left her registration information.

It's just a pity that no, he didn't find anything!
This scene made people a little puzzled. It was obvious that Truman was married, but why did he want to inquire about someone who knew it was a girl just by his name?

However, the film does not explain.

Of course, everyone subconsciously thinks that this girl named Sophia should be a foreshadowing. As for what it is, we need to continue reading.

Truman next sneaked out a fashion magazine, masking the sound of him tearing off the eyes of the models in the fashion magazine with an exaggerated cough.

However, his approach is still confusing.

A colleague sent him out to sea to process an order.

But Truman used various excuses to refuse, which also made people feel puzzled.

Why was it normal at the beginning, but when it came to crossing the sea, he changed his color.

Soon, the audience understood why Truman was so resistant.

He came to the ferry, which was once again the haunt of Huaguo UnionPay.

He paid for the boat ticket with UnionPay Cloud QuickPass.

Um, after all, they paid for it!

It's just that Truman's reaction quickly made everyone understand why he resisted so much.

Because when Truman saw a small boat sinking in the water, his face suddenly turned pale, his feet trembled, and he couldn't even stand firmly. Finally, he raised his head in fear, not daring to look at the water. out of here.

He still failed to cross the sea in the end!
And when the crew asked him if he needed help, he smiled and said, "I'm fine!"

But anyone can see that he is very bad!
Obviously, he resisted crossing the sea because he was afraid of water!

But why are you afraid of water?

The movie still didn't give an answer right away.

This is laying the groundwork again.

Including the previously mentioned Fiji, the girl named Sophia, and the torn fashion magazines, etc., etc., are all laying the groundwork.

Truman returned home.

The wife is back.

The audience suddenly discovered that Truman's wife was the actress who was interviewed at the beginning of the film!
I couldn't help feeling more and more sad in my heart, even the closest lover I shared the bed with was an actor, and they were all fake!
And if the twin brother's advertisement placement method was still vague, then the wife's advertisement is very simple and rude!

Truman's wife got off her bike and pulled something out of the front basket.

"Look, the supermarket has an event. I got this for free when I checked out. Mrs. Fang's chef partner, the chopping grinder will not be blunt...It can also be washed in the dishwasher!"

The audience at the scene couldn't help laughing.

There is no way, this scene, from the standpoint of the audience, it would be really stupid to advertise like this in reality, but in Truman's world, for Truman, this is reality!

"Wow, it's amazing!"

Truman awkwardly cooperated symbolically, obviously he was used to his wife's situation.

He didn't know at all what his wife was doing at this moment, just like being pressed on the billboard by the twins before, he didn't understand at all.

I don't know, at this time, audiences all over the world are watching him.

At least the audience, um, not only the audience watching "The Truman Show", but also the audience in the movie theater, isn't their laughter the same?

Ordinary viewers in the theater at least think this scene is very funny, but they just wonder how much this placement is?

But some directors, some filmmakers, and some film critics can't laugh at all, or they feel bad after laughing.

Because, it's humorous, but it's black humor.

I am the only one in the whole world who doesn't know that I am the main character!

I don't know why, but many people have a feeling of horror inexplicably. It seems that the movie even pulls the audience into it!
The screen changes abruptly.

A man appeared on the screen, holding a bottle of beer.

It is Kiyoshima beer.

The audience will know that the advertisement is coming again.

He took a sip of beer, then pointed the beer logo to the camera and said, "This is real beer!"

He didn't put away the beer until Truman looked over.

It turned out that he was Truman's friend, and the two played together.

Truman told the other party that he wanted to take a long trip.

It turns out that Truman has lived in this place called "Taoyuan Town" since he was born, and he has never even left, so he has always longed to get out of here, go a little further, and see the outside world.

And his dream place is the place called "Fiji".

He longed for that place, and he shared his imaginary place with this friend named "Ma Long".

If you go there, you won't want to come back.

Malone asked him, "When do you want to leave?"

The smile on Truman's face faded, and he said, "It's not that simple, you need money, and you have to plan well! You can't just leave!"

And later, through Truman's memories, he explained why Truman was afraid of water.

This stems from his psychological shadow when he was a child.

When he was a child, Truman went boating with his father. His father said it was too dangerous outside, but he insisted on going to have a look. As a result, they encountered a storm, and Truman's father accidentally fell into the water and died.

"This logic makes sense, but what the fuck, was his father's death also arranged by the director?" Liu Fei originally nodded his head in a dazed look, but then he stared at Chen Jingning and asked.

Chen Jingning nodded and said: "It should be a fake death, right? This is a reality show broadcast live all over the world. It can't be that people are actually dying, right?"

"Then this is too scary, isn't it? Man-made psychological shadow? Why?" Liu Fei felt a little horrified.

"Perhaps because he doesn't want Truman to leave? After all, this Taoyuan Town is under the control of the producer, and Truman is the protagonist! He is indispensable!" Chen Jingning analyzed.

"Fuck, in this case, even Truman's father should be an actor. In order to make Truman give up the idea of ​​leaving, he deliberately arranged such a death scene for Truman's father, but can a storm be artificially created?"

This was originally just a relatively conventional plot, but because the background of "The Truman Show" is a super reality show, so, naturally, this incident made countless viewers involuntarily think that they are similar to Chen Jingning and Liu Fei. doubt.

Was Truman's father's death really an accident?

Or is everything arranged?
And the next moment, the audience was certain that it must have been arranged.

Because Truman was sitting by the sea, recalling the past time with his father.

Suddenly a very special "downpour" fell.

Why do you say it is special?
Because, the heavy rain, like a spotlight, was only facing Truman!

It just fell from the sky, but it happened that there was only rain around where Truman was!
At the same time, there was lightning and thunder.

Yes, the director team can create a storm, create thunder and lightning!
Truman also noticed this strange situation, instead he laughed curiously and yelled.

But at this time, the heavy rain finally started without any difference.

Truman ran home.

He excitedly told his wife that they only need to pool up [-] yuan to travel around the world for a year!
It's just that his wife poured cold water on him and told him, then what?
It will be like five years ago, with nothing!
Here seems to be another foreshadowing.

What happened five years ago?
Why did Truman lose everything?
The wife told Truman: "Don't be a reckless child, we still have mortgages and car loans! If we just leave, who will pay these debts?"

But Truman still insisted, he felt that it was an adventure.

As a wife, oh, not as an actress, "The Truman Show" is her job.

Of course she couldn't let Truman leave.

So she said again: "Didn't we plan to have children? Isn't that considered a risk?"

But Truman was very determined this time, he thought that the matter of the child could be postponed, but this time, he wanted to leave here first!

"Go see the world and have an adventure!"

But his wife only thought he was childish.

Kissed him and said, "You'll get over it soon!"

She seemed very determined, perhaps it was not the first time Truman had such thoughts.

But obviously every time he failed to make the trip, his wife believed in the director's skill, and he must have a way to make Truman dispel such thoughts.

"Take off your wet clothes and go to bed (Harmony) early!"

Screen switching.

Two men in security uniforms looked at the TV and said: "You can't see anything. At this time, the camera will always be moved away, and then the music will play!"

"When the wind blows, the curtains move, and I can't see any wonderful pictures!"

The audience in the theater couldn't help laughing.

Some people even joked with a smile: "This show is really awesome, and I gave it to my wife! Tsk tsk, even though she is an actress, the life of a couple is always real, right?"

"By the way, you won't even make arrangements for having a baby?"

"Those two security guards are also amazing. If they really see wonderful scenes, will this show still be broadcast?"

However, there are still a small number of people who can't laugh at all.

Yeah, it looks like everything is set up.

But even my closest lover is an actor, and "love" is arranged, so in Truman's world, what else is real?

Maybe, except for Truman, everything is fake.

If it wasn't for the reason, such scenes are not allowed to be broadcast, otherwise, I'm afraid they won't be let go, right?
What's more, the outside world can't see it, so what about the crew?
Will that producer see it?

Thinking about it is too scary!

The plot continued, and Truman bought newspapers and magazines at the newsstand as usual.

Every time he was asked if he bought it for his wife, he would always say yes with an awkward smile, not enough.

However, in the next scene, Truman's father actually appeared!
The father who died unexpectedly "resurrected from the dead"!

"dad……"

Truman was a little confused.

Isn't his father dead?
It's just that Truman has not waited for him to figure out the situation.

The "passer-by" who was originally serving as the background board suddenly rushed out, carrying Truman's father and leaving quickly.

And when Truman wanted to chase after him.

As if the whole world was against him, first a group of runners stood in his way.

Then someone on a bicycle blocked him, and more than that, he watched the two get on the bus with his "father."

But when he rushed over, the bus refused to stop no matter how much he yelled.

When he pursued, there were even cars on the road blocking him.

In the end, he could only watch his father go away helplessly.

This scene can be said to be very abrupt.

The audience in the theater was also stunned.

Truman's father died at the beginning, and now he is back from the dead, so that the audience can be sure that the accident back then was basically the script arranged by the director.

The purpose is to make Truman have a psychological shadow. Of course, maybe the actor of the "father" has no schedule?
But that's all.

But why, the dead person reappeared in front of Truman?

Is it a bug?
Out of control?
Or, could it be that the man who played Truman's father found out his conscience and re-entered Taoyuan Town to remind Truman that all this was a scam?
It can be said that this scene made the audience in the theater full of question marks.

why?
why?
why?
They have many questions.

However, the movie still didn't give an answer right away!
Truman went to his mother and told her that he saw his father.

But his mother just said: "I often see passers-by as him. Last Thursday, I almost hugged a stranger!"

Truman naturally couldn't be so easily persuaded by his mother: "I swear that's Dad! Dressed like a homeless man, and it's weird, a businessman and a woman walking a dog, who ran out of nowhere, took him off the bus!"

It's just that his father is an actor, so what about his mother?

Actors too, apparently!

Therefore, the more you look at it, the more sad and terrifying it becomes.

Father, mother, wife, friends, colleagues, neighbors, everything, all are actors, all are fake.

Therefore, his mother would deny it again and again, and felt that Truman had misjudged the person.

With all the questions she asked Truman, she used various methods to try to convince Truman that he was wrong!

Questions still accompany the audience.

The plot didn't stop there.

Truman returned home and found a photo with his father.

He was sure that what he saw was his father!

How could a son recognize his father by mistake?

As his wife came down the stairs, he fumbled a little, pretending to be repairing the lawn mower.

As a result, the wife found another opportunity to advertise: "We should throw away this lawn mower and replace it with an Elk brand lawn mower!"

Moreover, what's interesting is that every time it's commercial time, the camera will always zoom in deliberately.

I almost told you directly that I was advertising!
At this time, Truman dug out a girl's clothes.

The story of this piece of clothing was elicited through the words of the audience watching "The Truman Show".

A female audience wondered: "What is he doing?"

In fact, this is also the doubt of many audiences in movie theaters.

At this time, another old viewer of "The Truman Show" was obviously, and she said, "Look, they took that actress away, but they can't erase his memory!"

Ironically, on the TV, the edited video of Truman and the hostess of this dress actually started to play.

Reminiscing, the director will help you recall and help the audience recall!
It also revealed why Truman wanted to go to Fiji, why Truman wanted to leave Taoyuan Town, because he didn't know everything!
Also because of the girl who was taken away!
That girl named Sophia is Truman's real first love.

Even if that girl hadn't violated the director's will, she might be Truman's "wife" now!
Truman liked her very much. It can even be said that he fell in love at first sight when he saw her for the first time.

So, he later took the initiative to pursue her.

But she resisted.

Truman asked her many reasons, but Sophia shook her head and denied it, saying it was not because of those.

Not because of that girl, not because Truman is not handsome.
Among them was a medal that Truman noticed, which read: "hows it going to end?"

Means "how does it end?"

Because the camera doesn't stay for too long, ordinary viewers don't care too much.

But in the movie theater, there are many "uncommon" insiders.

They are sensitively aware that this is also a foreshadowing!
Yes, how it ends.How should you end up, after all, it is not a real world, everything is fake, only Truman is real!
How do you end up with lies and deceit?

But soon, they didn't have the mind to think about it.

Because of the girl, the girl named Sophia, or the actress?

She clearly knew that there were cameras everywhere, their every move was monitored, filmed, and broadcast to audiences all over the world.

But she was still moved with compassion, she couldn't bear to see Truman being held here like a prisoner.

In fact, she also knew that once she told the truth, she would be taken away.

So she told Truman: "If you don't leave now, you won't have a chance!"

The girl knew that she had violated the director's arrangement by doing so.

She actually tried to tell Truman the truth!
"Everyone knows everything about you, everyone can see your every move, but everyone is acting, do you understand?"

She also told Truman that her name was not Roland, but her real name was "Sophia!"

She makes a last-ditch effort as she is about to be taken away by a man claiming to be her father.

She grabbed a handful of sand from the beach and told Truman: "It's all faked for you. The sky, the ocean, it's all set. Everyone is watching your show! Don't listen to them, they have nothing to say. I'm lying to you!"

As a result, the man who claimed to be the girl's father told Truman that the girl had schizophrenia!
At the same time they will move, to Fiji!
This also explains why Truman always wants to go to that place!

This is obviously another motivation for Truman to leave Taoyuan Town.
