One of the first movies to explore life through the lens of reality TV, and what reality even means in the first place, The Truman Show pioneered an entire genre in 1998 that was continued by movies like Being John Malkovich, Adaptation, and even Donnie Darko. In this film, Truman Burbank (Jim Carrey) lives a perfect life — until he realises it's all a simulation made for television. A movie that makes the viewer question the nature of life itself (and our control over it), it broke conventions at the time of its release and is still an incredible watch.
