Abstract

This article’s object is constituted by the film The Truman Show (1998), directed by Peter Weir and starring Jim Carrey. This text analyzes the cinematographic representation to discuss relative
questions to the communication, the media and the consumption. Based on authors as Mikhail Bakhtin, Guy Debord, Michel de Certeau and Wolfgang Fritz Haug, the author develops a reflection about the relation between the man and the media, the language as mediation, the society of the spectacle and the everyday life.
