“The Truman Show Is Filled With A Crazy Amount Of Little Details So Here’s A Thread Of Some Of My Favorites”
bored panda - 4 weeks ago
Marc Moran from Glasgow, Scotland, thinks The Truman Show (1998) is one of the greatest movies of all time. To illustrate why he loves it so much, Marc created a Twitter thread, listing all the little things the filmmakers included in their story of the insurance salesman who discovered his whole life was actually a reality TV show. You know, the sort of things that even a trained eye can consciously take note of only during a second, third, or fourth viewing.
People really appreciated Marc's insights and they have generated over 119K likes and 21.5K retweets in just 3 days. After other cinephiles added their own comments to the thread, the buzz surrounding it has gotten so big, it even pushed The Truman Show into the country's Netflix Movie Top 10.
