The Truman Show

We all accept the reality with which we are presented with. No matter how unbelievable or unrealistic some ones perspective may seem to someone else looking from the outside in, to the person living that reality everything makes sense. The North Korean people for example, accept the Communist reality that their leader has created. They are convinced that Kim Jung Un can read their minds! We of course know that this is insane, but to them it's perfectly normal. Another example of an alternative reality is the education system, we accept all the rules that they expect us to follow without questioning it. In "The Truman Show" Christof believes he is helping Truman by imprisoning him in his own alternate reality. Cristof believes that sheltering Truman from the real world is the best way to keep him happy. The idea that my life could be my own personal reality is very interesting, however it is impossible because there are events happening all around me that don't involve me at all. In order for this to be my own version of the Truman show, the whole community would have to focus around me. Gristof was probably a failed actor who wanted to revolutionize the entertainment business, and so he created "The Truman Show" and started to live his own life Truman's.
