Then there's the inverse, where someone's real life becomes a movie unbeknownst to them. The Truman Show, The Secret Cinema, and, my favorite, Bowfinger.

Betty White was funny in a couple spots but she's abused by the script in a couple other places and I felt bad for her.
But then I really didn't like the movie. |

I was disappointed with On the Beach. For a post-apocalyptic movie set down under, it was really rather staid. It's been a while though, and it's a semi-classic that might deserve revisiting.
But for the micro-micro genre of post-apocalyptic down under, best stick with the first two Mad Max movies. Those are awesome! |

tvtropes.org has a nice page on The Man Who Knew Too Little genre.

I watched The Reader over the weekend. I liked it, I thought Kate Winslet deserved the Oscar. But I guess I felt torn about her character...

I like Kate Winslet, I'm a big fan, but this one mystified me as to why it received all the kudos. I've got Revolutionary Road at home waiting to watch it. I really did not understand what was so all that about her performance. |

A lot of the mentions on the TV Tropes page are situations where the character thinks it is real but it is actually faked/staged. That's the opposite of The Man Who Knew Too Little.
More from Straight Dope: Shadow of a Vampire - Everybody thinks they're just making Nosferatu but he's really a vampire. Life is Beautiful - Roberto Benigni convinces his son that the concentration camp their in is a complex game. My Name is Bruce - Bruce Campbell, action star, thinks he's on a lark. In the thinks it is real but it isn't camp: Last Action Hero Bolt |
