August 8, 2022 - Wow, haven't seen The Truman Show in ages. Laura barely aged a bit, almost forgot she was in that movie ... She definitely did age a bit but she aged like fine wine I would say. ... That’s crazy talk! Women aren’t supposed to age and they should not show it if they do. That’s not proper etiquette. ... I’ll second this. She is incredible in it. ... Yup will do. Its the thriller one with Kate Winslet, Laura Linney ...

The Truman Show (1998) starring Jim Carrey, Laura Linney
The last line is the best. The way the two security guards simply ask, “What else is on?” shows how fickle we are, ready to move on the next thing that tickles our fancy and then the cycle repeats itself… Great movie. More on reddit.com

[SIN SPOILERS] Acabo de ver a Laura Linney en El Show de Truman (1998), y su personaje es tan molesto y manipulador como Wendy. Me encantó su actuación. Es como si hubiera nacido para hacer estos papeles de "loca psicópata".
Wow, ¡no había visto El Show de Truman en años! Laura casi ni envejeció, casi se me olvida que estuvo en esa película. More on reddit.com

June 5, 2018 - Two decades ago, The Truman Show seemed preposterous. “We would laugh about how unrealistic some of it seemed,” said co-star Laura Linney, remembering conversations the cast and crew would have on the film’s Seaside, Florida set.

Laura Linney in The Truman Show – @groovykindoflove on Tumblr
Alright I'm AWARE you're supposed to hate Meryl Burbank. But Laura Linney is such a marvelous actress. The scene where Truman calls her out on her artificiality, she attempts to stay in character but ultimately breaks and solidifies Truman's theories about his life.

Last Night I Watched: ‘The Truman Show’ - The Boar
July 16, 2020 - Ed Harris’ portrayal as Christof, the creator of the show, is beautiful in its poise and subtlety, the other cast members in their depiction of their respective characters in Truman’s world were also splendid. Most notably Laura Linney in her role as Meryl, Truman’s wife, who does very well in covertly showing the disingenuous nature of their world, as her stilted delivery of some pieces of dialogue and incessant need to subtly advertise consumer goods reminds the audience that Truman’s family and friends are, in fact, acting.
