The film The Truman Show portrays an array of the ways of knowing continuously throughout. One of these ways can easily be deciphered as intuition. The essential gut feeling can swallow up any other reliable source solely because of a certain unexplainable phenomena pulling the heart and mind in polar directions. Initially, it is Truman’s intuition that over powers his refuting thoughts and this is demonstrated when Truman explains his theory to Marlon, who then proceeds to invalidate it. This leaves

The Truman Show introduces us to a man named Truman who is living a fake life, a life in which everything around him has been scripted out by a director of a television show.

Sometimes I think why I signed that contract. It is terrible living in the dome and at work twenty four seven. How can Truman survive in such a small city where there is no entertainment?
