In 1998 The Truman Show was released as perhaps a cautionary tale about the dangers of reality TV! Did we listen? No! As now, nearly half of TV programming these days seems to be reality shows.  We are obsessed! Jim Carrey stars as oblivious Truman, born into a reality show and watched 24-7 by the world unbeknownst to him until literally the sky falls one day - or stage lights - and he begins to question what is his reality? We saw this movie in the theaters as we were want to do with anything Jim Carrey and it was fun to revisit it as it's a really clever film and showcases JC's first foray into the more serious roles he'd see in the future.  We'll talk about reality shows, how Sweety legit had Truman Syndrome and thought she was on her own reality show in elementary school, and how important it was to find that perfect first day of school outfit - even though looking back gosh what were we thinking with those fashion choices?
