Responses to Truman Show dystopian movie

Choose TWO of these three prompts to respond to, due Monday, 5/15.


      A.  During an interview, Christof says, “We accept the reality with which we are presented.           It is as simple as that.”  Based upon this film, the dystopian novel you are reading, and           your own life, is this true?  Why or why not?
       (2-3 paragraph response)
B.  As Truman begins to piece together the falsity of the world that surrounds him, his view        of Seahaven is radically altered.  He starts to question and analyze all that he encounters.        How does this parallel with the experiences of the characters in the dystopian novel you          are reading?  Can you think of a parallel in your own life that has changed the way you            process the world? (2-3 paragraph response)
C.  Respond to one symbol you see used throughout the film and what you feel it represents.        Then, please describe an object that is used in a similar symbolic manner in your                      dystopian reading book, and what it is representative of for the culture and characters 
     of the book.  (2-3 paragraph response)
