Great movie—I always used this to show that people may SAY that they want God to make everything go smoothly for them, and they blame him for all the bad stuff, (like—“Why are you doing this to me, God?” Or “Why did you kill so-and-so?!”). Instead, you see we all desire freedom, and we all can see that it is not right for Christof to do that to Truman. We are rooting for him to escape. That is why God gives us free will. If we want Him in our life, we can search for him and find him, but he does not impose himself on us.
