Folks I don't usually do this, but having seen THE TRUMAN SHOW for a second time yesterday, and still loving it, I was all set to write up a second review... BUT then Kelly sent this in, and having written two things on the film already I thought... Well I'll let Kelly talk. This will be the last word on Truman from the site, and I can't imagine it being put more honestly. So I turn the floor over to Kelly....

I don't have a hot tip, and I don't know who gets a light saber in the scrotum in the next Star Wars. I just wanted to thank you for putting a sensitive, well-written essay on "The Truman Show" out there for a lot of folks to read and a couple(I hope) to understand.

I left the theatre tonight, and I had the odd sensation that maybe the movie had a big effect on people. Maybe some of the folks out there in the audience didn't feel gypped with only a few jokes and a lot of strong music. I think it reached some of them. I pray it reached a lot of them, because it reached me. It touched me in a way that was pure and simple and strong. It wasn't a touch like the one I got from "Titanic", which has made me feel tacky for buying into the whole mess. It wasn't the shaking I got from Jodie Foster in "Contact". It was a movie filled with actors, who were actors, and there in the middle was a real human being. Jim Carrey was that person, and he wasn't great. He wasn't 'on' all the time, and he cried a little. No, he wasn't great. He was REAL. He was the kind of creature that Jim really is, that all of us are sometimes...a real, flawed human being. He reached inside himself and he found something and he fought and he won. And the rest of us, sitting there, are left alone to wonder where inside of ourselves to look, so the rest of us can triumph, too. And I think some people got it.

Thanks for your time, Harry. I really like the site.
