The Truman Show

There are many things that are special and weird in Truman's life. The first is that the moon and the sun appear close together, at the same time at night. Two others would be the fact that there are suspicious looking people taking significant people away from Truman at different times in his life. (For example his father and Sylvia Garland). Another would be how he is not allowed to enter some buildings that are public buildings (the office next to his working area).
If this was me, stuck in a tv-series that I believe is the real world, I would've started to search for an escape or answer to these "abnormalities" earlier in my life. If I thought I saw my dead father, I wouldn't stop until I found out if it was true or not. Truman seems to give up quickly. In many countries, it isn't too far to the next bus stop. You can run and catch up with this bus of his. I would also used my common sense when it comes to the moon and the sun, knowing that it is not possible for that to occur every night. I would also get mad, and get to the bottom of these "weird" public buildings that everyone but I can enter. I would let my curiosity and restlessness get the better of me. It takes Truman over 10,000 days for this to happen!!!
I believe that Truman will find a way out of this world and find the real love of his life. He will notice that the world of his is only a set by actually overcoming his fears of water. He will be determined at some point to find his father. He must leave for Fiji at some point as well. His love is waiting for him. At some point, everything will boil over and fear is not going to stop him. Truman will start thinking on his own, maybe for the first time in a long time.
