Good morning! You're live on EDtv!

EdTv is a comedy, but also a very serious movie: if you notice our reality in the present days, full of cameras watching us everywhere we go, and even the reality show programs, you will notice that the main thing in the movie is not only to entertain, but maybe also to alert people about the dangerous problems of all this stuff. Ed Pekurny is a regular guy who suddenly gets invited to be part of a reality show. He accepts,specially because he wants the money that the TV executives are going to pay him. Gradually, what starts being funny and even a nice way of popularity becomes a nightmare,with Ed not having any privacy at all,specially with his girlfriend Shari.

I found the end of this movie very cool. Go watch it :)

Quiz
This film and The Truman Show (1998) were aware of each other during pre-production. Edtv was not that concerned because their film would be a comedy, and they didn't think audiences would turn out in large numbers to see Jim Carrey doing a drama. When The Truman Show (1998) turned into a big hit, Universal insisted that the promotions for this film make it look like more of a broad slapstick comedy than it actually was, contributing to its failure at the box-office. Coincidentally, Dennis Hopper was originally cast in the role Ed Harris portrayed in The Truman Show.

Blooper
When Ed is talking to Shari from the street, it's clearly raining pretty steadily. Everything outside is dripping wet and Ed's hair is soaked and rain noise is clear, yet his jacket is dry and no raindrops can be seen hitting the ground.

Citazioni
Whitaker: Cynthia, another word, and you may consider yourself fired.
Cynthia: Uh-oh. Can you gimme a hint? What word? Uh, *asshole*? *Shithead*? Is that - I bet that - is that one word or two though? I never can remember that. Shithead.
