Set in fascist Italy during World War II, the stop-motion animated movie is at once a story of one child lost and another found, how life and death are both interconnected and inevitable, and the lengths one would go to to save a loved one.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

On this week's show we discuss whether they arrived at a satisfying ending.Advertising Inquiries:

The Truman Show

2023/03/06

The 1998 movie The Truman Show stars Jim Carrey as Truman Burbank, a person who lives in a TV show where he is the star and doesn't know it. The film is both comedy and drama, and is even a bit prophetic in its look at how television creates celebrities and how reality shows appeal to audiences who want a peek into the private lives of others.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
