Really an interesting take on the limitations of freedom.

Unfortunately not. I tried to find some academic work discussing the issue in the past and came up with nothing. I consider it an "original idea" of mine until someone shows me otherwise.

If you do choose to write a paper on it or anything related to it, though, I'd be more than happy to read a draft and give you some feedback or something. And if you find any useful sources related to the idea, by all means let me know about them!

Recently re-watched it as well. Great movie. Probably one of Carey's best.

Will keep you posted, I definitely think it's an idea I'd like to explore a bit more fully, and it may be the focus of my term paper for the ethics of religion.

always liked this movie

it's interesting that it is set in a town called Seaside, Florida, which is famous for being one of the first designed "all-american" "new urbanist" cities. (Duany-Plater-Zyberk was the firm) .


What's scary is that the ideas that firms like this have aren't really far away from the motives of the truman show itself




also you have to love the phillip glass tracks

Really strange that I never caught the title: "Disturbing move."
