Iconic Quotes from The Truman Show: Insights into Reality and Freedom


In case I don't see ya.

Good afternoon,  good evening and good night.

- The Truman Show -


This line is spoken by the main character Truman (played by Jim Carrey) in the 1998 American film, The Truman Show. The fictional city of Seahaven, a giant reality show set, is where Truman is trapped and tricked by a dictatorial figure who claims to ensure safety while violating personal freedoms. Truman's final line is spoken as he leaves the "safety" of Seahaven to make a difficult escape of his own choosing. It's a witty way to say goodbye and fits with Truman's energetic persona at the beginning of the film. However, at the end of the film, when the people in the show are cheering for his freedom, it feels bittersweet. The line is symbolic of the film's journey to find authenticity, freedom, and personal agency.
