I feel deeply after I watch Truman show. It makes me think about our life and media
Truman is a leading role in his own world unconsciously. He lives in
that peaceful world out of willingness. Do the creature that others pay
attention to. His own life is control by director. Life to him is real
but fake.
Truman's life is completely open to the mass.
People knew everything he does,such as how he was born, went to school,
got a job,got married and so on. They are witness of Truman's life
.Everyone live together with him are all performers. Everything they do
is in the director's arrangement. His wife, who is claimed herself a
doctor, is not a doctor at all. His father, who was died in a storm, is
still alive. All performers are supposed to be cheat. Truman's life is
absolutely a vast lie. But when you know your life is rally a lie, do
you have to courage to expose it? Will you choose to give up your
peaceful life under control rather than to be the leading role of your
show? Not everyone has the courage to go out. May be you will say: “It
is easy to go out.” But we can't understand, predict and control the
outside world, can you?
Sometimes I wonder if I also live in
that fake world. Am I the real leading role of my Truman Show? I don't
know. If I live in this situation, I will be angry and want to escape
from this huge prison. I will feel disrespect and boring because in my
mind no one has the right to arrange my life. No one can control it
including me. My life is supposed to be an adventure. Nobody knows what
is going to happen. If it is like a soap opera as Trumann's, it will be
meaningless. Nobody wants to be a victim of media. But I have to admit,
media is powerful, we can't live without it and we have to suffer from
it, especially stars.
Nowadays media is full of our daily
life. We surf the internet to look up news whenever we want. We like to
watch movies, news, soap operas, talk shows or other television programs
in our leisure time. Surfing the internet to know anything we want to
know. We always talk with our classmates about everything happened
around us, such as new movies on show, new songs, the scandal about
starts and so on. Public figures seems don't have the right to keep
privacy. They are beneficiaries of media, but also victims.
What can we do to avoid us suffer from media, or to avoid being violated
and misleading? I think we should not rely on media everywhere and
anytime. Sometimes we should have our own judgments rather than follow
those so called experts. We had better more focus on our daily life not
the famous person's. We had better not spending to much time on watching
TV and try to do something meaningful by watching TV. We should make
full use of media rather than rely on it.
