The Truman Show inverts the usual gap. Early on, Truman has moderate "control" — the show gives him a comfortable life, a house, a job — but near-zero agency, because his choices aren't real choices when the menu is rigged. As he begins to suspect and investigate, agency rises sharply while control stays low (the show fights every escape attempt). The gap flips: by Act Four, Truman has high agency and zero control, choosing to escape while the entire apparatus works to stop him. The climax is the moment both lines finally meet at the top — walking through the door is the first act where agency and control are the same thing.
