The Truman Show (w/ Jaffer Khan)
Manage episode 409076420 series 3441224
Rivka and Frank are joined by comedian Jaffer Khan for a conversation about the 1998 Peter Weir / Jim Carrey masterpiece, The Truman Show. They discuss how Truman’s arc serves as a metaphor for radicalization, Guy Debord’s Society of the Spectacle and the commodification of genuine human experience, and how the film prophesied the self-surveillance state of social media.
For next week’s movie, we’ll be watching the 1998 Robert Zemeckis film Who Framed Roger Rabbit.
