I thought about the relation between media and daily life before write this diary. And I brought one movie to mind.
It is ‘The Truman Show’.
Truman is the hero of this movie and the other drama in movie. In “The Truman Show”, the actor Jim Carrey plays the hero. In the movie, He live in the manipulated world. But, He don’t know about it.
So, His private life is opened to the public without his any permission.
And in the movie, Peoples never feel guilty about it. They enjoy watching Truman’s life.
After Truman knew that All the thing is show, He strive to escape this situation and find himself.
But, It’s very difficult.
In my opinion, This movie is showed media’s danger. When I saw this movie, I felt Truman is miserable and poor character.
Nowadays, Many people want more exciting media. So, Broadcasting emphasize sex-appealing and violence more and more. I think this phenomenon is incorrect. And many people fall under the control of media without awareness.
Program’s popularity is important. But, broadcasting’s right information transmission also important. We have a right about it. So, We should feel owner consciousness.
