    College. I saw The Truman Show starring Jim Carrey who played Truman Burbank. The Truman Show is about a television show that has recorded the life of Truman ever since he was born. The television show is a worldwide phenomenon‚ the only catch is Truman does not know his whole life has been recorded. Every person in his life is an actor‚ and the producer of the show determines the fate of his life‚ from his marriage to Meryl to the faked death of his “father”. The life of Truman Burbank connects to

    I don’t believe it was acceptable for the U.S. to drop the atomic bomb. Because of Truman‚ over 70‚000 innocent people died. Had he not chosen this path‚ there would have been no civilian casualties. But I can also see where he was coming from. He wanted to save American lives. Truman believed he was doing the right thing. He had to make a decision based on what had happened. He was trying to gain a victory in the pacific by getting the Japanese to surrender. His option was that or the ‘or else’
