Blog 6- The Truman Show

1. In what ways are Christof and the television network similar to God? In what respects do they differ?
Christof is looked at from trumans point of view as the god of his world. He owns everything in the world that he created especially for truman. Christof is also able to control anything he wants for example the weather the people even sometimes truman himself. But christof has many similarities with God because they are both the one everyone looks up to. And in some ways that they differ is actually no way at all, I tried to think of any differences but i seem not to think of any between them, so i guess they have alot in common.

2.Consider yourself in Truman’s position. If presented with the choice to remain in Seahaven, a place where you have been promised that “you have nothing to fear”, or to enter into another world that you know little or nothing about, which would you choose?
Well if i had the choice to choose the real world and a world where I'm promise everything will be peaceful, i mean yeah everything is gonna be peaceful and great but what makes you think your not gonna get tired of the same bullshit everyday for the rest of your life. So defiently i would have to say that i would choose to escaspe the seahaven and enter the real world.

3.When Truman finally exits Seahaven, what do you think it is that he expects to find on the other side of the door?
Well when thinking about it he really gets the idea that he is being watched when the women kept insisting that he was being recorded. And during the movie there is many shots where he is caught thinking about her a whole lot. So I'm guessing that after he exist he is probably looking for his love.

  2. I also agree with the idea as christof being looked as a god since he controls Truman environment. But there are a few differences, christof is not able to control trumans actions and what he choses to do. But good job, I agree with your anwsers.
