Directed by: Peter Weir

Revealing mistake: When Truman is first discovered escaping on the boat, they go to a camera shot of his face. If you look at the water, the boat is not moving at all. They use a similar shot later in the scene after the storm. You can also tell the background is the same as the large wall that Truman crashes his boat into. (01:19:05 - 01:25:25)
Revealing mistake: If you look in Truman's car's mirror when he is backing up from the traffic jam, wires can be seen wrapped around his car.
Continuity mistake: When the fallen lamp has settled, the glass and parts of the housing are in the sunlight, and the light is in the shadow, with the camera looking into the side of the shadow. As Truman comes out to investigate, the light has been turned to a new direction, the pieces of the housing are missing, and the glass is splayed out a lot more than it originally was.
Truman Burbank: Good morning! And in case I don't see you, good afternoon, good evening, and good night!
Trivia: A steadfast rule on set was that nobody was permitted to speak phrases from any of Jim Carrey's prior movies. (01:01:45)
