Movie quote from: The Truman Show (1998) - Christof (Ed Harris)
Truman Burbank (Jim Carrey) lives an ideal life in the beautiful and secure town of Seahaven. He has a great job, a loving wife, and everybody knows and loves him. He has no idea that his world is actually a huge Hollywood set populated with actors portraying characters in his life's story. Set in the skies over Seahaven lives Cristof (Ed Harris), the man who writes and directs the script that is Truman's life. The Truman Show is an intriguing consideration; is it wise to seek a deeper understanding of the reality behind the reality we perceive?
“Science has stolen most of our miracles.”
