I love reading fanfics where one character is tagged as jealous, but their partner is unlovable to anyone but them. Like.. calm down, sweetheart, no one wants your man. We're still trying to figure out why you want your man.

"but they hate eachother" "this ship makes no sense" "that would never be canon" "they're only friends" "but one of them is already dating someone" "they'd be toxic together" don't caaaare I'm consuming media of them being insane about each other and falling in love in situations you couldn't fathom

Something about Marlon from the Truman Show saying he and Truman have been friends since they were seven years old.

Something about this child signing up to do a show when he was seven years old and still being on it when he’s 30

Something about him having pneumonia for a month (in my mind it’s so they can have him in less scenes because of child labor laws).

Something about him telling Truman “I’m not in it” because he’s not. He was just a child and he’s the closest to having to grown up in this world as much as Truman has.

Something about child stars

i just rewatched The Truman Show and like. god. what a fucking movie. one of the movies of all time tbh.

the detail i just realized that im the most insane about is that when Truman leaves the Dome™ he has a bruise on his face

the most recognizable face in the world. christof has marketed him so much. his face is so important to christof's show, it is the show, there's the women with the pillow of his face, his face is plastered all over the technical difficulties screen-

but it's bruised. the last shot aired has their golden boy bruised, battered, stepping into the darkness and away from the cameras with the show's symbol very visibly... broken isn't the right word but it's the best one i've got

and it's a bruise that he has because of christof. he got it when he was being thrown around in the storm production started to try and get him back into town. christof gave him that bruise and it meant the last shot of his golden boy wasn't perfect

fuck. i love this movie

Thoughts on what happens after the Truman Show

He changes his name as soon as he knows that people can change names. Anything to distance himself from the show

At first, reporters and psychologists swarm him at every opportunity but he won't respond. He won't say anything to them. Until years and years later when he tells everyone what it was really like.

He's constantly surprised by things. How small and distant the moon looks. The strange nonchalance of an unscripted conversation. Food from different cultures. How the weather changes gradually instead of just switching on and off.

When he first saw CCTV cameras everywhere, he started to think it was all an elaborate trick until it was explained to him what they were actually for. Even so... sometimes he wonders.

Everyone knows his name which is extremely jarring

He lives with Sylvia and she tries to help integrate him into the real world. It's a difficult journey, but eventually he makes it.

He's astounded by the sheer depth of freedom he has. He can walk down that path he hasn't been down before. He can travel wherever he wants. The whole world is at his fingertips.

He becomes an explorer and tries his best to reach every part of the world. He's still scared of open water, but there's something about the sailing that comforts him, in a way. There's so much open, free space

Truman doesn't watch TV. He tried but it resulted in a very bad panic attack

Panic attacks are not that uncommon

Sometimes he has to check if the people he's talking to have earpieces or not just to reassure himself

There's so much music out there that isn't classical?!

He likes how everyone dresses differently to each other.

He finally gets to go to Fiji!

Feel like society has forgotten the art of dislike. you can just dislike a thing. a person. a ship. a character. a book. why does everything have to become Hatred. why do you need to get other people to Hate with you. why can't you just go blech!!!!!!! and then move on. god i miss living in a society that was comfortable with shades of grey and not existing between extremes

I'm obsessed with Southern!Alfred

- I'm obsessed with Alfred who is the king of southern hospitality and manners (he will fuss at you to get your elbows off the table)

- Alfred who drinks almost exclusively sweet tea

- Alfred who gets breakfast at the Waffle House every morning

- Alfred whose nicknames are all food (butter bean, sweet pea, sugar cube, etc.)

- Alfred who could easily steal your girl with his accent alone

- Alfred who'll say "Hold my beer" before doing the most unhinged, reckless shit you've ever seen

- Alfred who takes his guitar everywhere and loves to show off

- Alfred who can also play violin and piano, but only knows country songs

- Alfred whose favorite thing is horseback riding

- Alfred who's never been to a mechanic because he can fix his old beat up truck himself

- Alfred who wears boots and blue jeans everywhere, including to world meetings

- Alfred whose most devastating insult is "Oh, bless your heart, you sweet summer child"

He was as tall as he was tall, and his eyes were the color they were. To describe his hair one would say that he had some. His face had all the features you'd expect, and none of the ones you wouldn't. "There he is," people would often say of him, but only when he was there. And they were right.
