Time Out of Joint

1998年的經典電影─《楚門的世界》（The Truman Show），由喜劇泰斗，金凱瑞所飾演主角─楚門。

プロットは1959年のフィリップ・K・ディックの小説『時は乱れて』（Time Out of Joint）からいくつもアイデアを拝借しているという。

Time Out of Joint
Time Out of Joint is a dystopian novel by Philip K. Dick, first published in novel form in the United States in 1959. 
 The title is a reference to the line uttered by Hamlet to Horatio after being visited by his father's ghost and learning that his uncle Claudius murdered his father; in short, a shocking supernatural event that fundamentally alters the way Hamlet perceives the state and the universe ("The time is out of joint; O cursed spite!/That ever I was born to set it right!" [I.V.211-2]), much as do several events in the novel.

這是一個顛倒混亂的時代，唉，倒霉的我卻要負起重整乾坤的責任！

時代整個而脫節了；啊，真蹧，

天生我偏要我把它重新整好！
