10 Movie Endings With Disturbing Implications You Totally Missed

2. Truman's Life In The Real World Is Going To Be Something Close To A Living Nightmare (The Truman Show)

The brilliant premise behind The Truman Show is that one man's life is an ongoing reality TV show that he's completely unaware of - all the people he interacts with on a day to day basis are actors, and his town is actually a huge set built into a giant dome. Truman, our main character, eventually discovers this, and the ending of the movie sees him escaping from the set as the fake world around him comes crashing down. The movie ends with Truman stepping out into the real world, where new, better horizons await him...

But Wait... Despite the fact that Truman's entire life was, in a sense, fake, what awaits him on the outside is going to be something close to hellish. Granted, he's probably going to be the most famous person on the planet (or at least in the States), and every news broadcaster and television station in the world is going to wait to talk to him. Forever.

Given how many people watched "The Truman Show" in the confines of the movie, it's not unsafe to assume that pretty much everybody knows who he is - who could you not? Truman's existence is going to be akin to that of a hundred Brad Pitts, or a million Rob Schneiders. So much so, in fact, that living in that concealed dome where everybody was super nice to him all the time and he had no real worries will probably seem like something of a fond memory.

As it stands, the man is in store for a terribly intrusive life of press conferences and autographs. Especially when you consider that his escape probably made him even more of a hero to the world at large.
