幕后花絮

这个看似荒谬的故事其实富有哲理：人们的偷窥心理在现代社会中凭借着日新月异的科技得到升级和满足。对该片主角楚门（名字的字面意思是“真人”）来说，人生真是一出戏，他就是这出戏的明星。金•凯瑞以其讨人喜爱的正派形象，还有关键时候怒火的爆发力，诠释了一个终生被人摆布、遭人愚弄的普通人典型。影片中的配角和群众演员必须表演出戏中戏的两面性：他们要做得让楚门（还有电视剧观众）信以为真，同时又要让楚门（还有电影观众）起疑心。真中必须有假，但又决不是演技低劣的那种假，而是一种太过完美的假。

•楚门的帆船名叫“圣玛利亚”号，跟哥伦布船队的一艘船同名。

•楚门的厨房中有一瓶维他命D，这是给那些长期见不到阳光的人用的。

•导演彼得•威尔是用1.66:1的格式拍摄的电影，以使它看起来更像电视节目。

•片中合成器旁电视节目的音乐制作人是本片作曲菲利普•格拉斯（Philip Glass）。片中的真人秀配乐使用了一些他过去的作品。

•加里•奥德曼曾要出演本片。

•当时还拍摄了很多关于楚门秀的假冒纪录片，在影片最后的版本中没有被使用。但是在某些飞机上播放的电影版本中则被收录以供乘客们打发时间。

•拍摄现场人们被禁止讨论金•凯瑞拍过的那些“愚蠢的”电影。（mtime.com）

The film was a commercial success, earning $125,618,201 domestically and $138,500,000 elsewhere - for a worldwide total of $264,118,201.

Critically, the film was also a success, with 96% of registered reviews by selected critics on the website Rotten Tomatoes being positive. The Truman Show was also nominated for three Oscars (original screenplay, achievement in directing, and best supporting actor: Ed Harris) and six Golden Globes. It won three Golden Globes, including a Best Actor in a Motion Picture-Drama win for Jim Carrey, thus generating a substantial amount of Oscar buzz. Carrey was not nominated for an Academy Award for this film (or any other film to date). The movie won the 1999 Hugo Award for Best Dramatic Presentation. (wikipedia)
