[BIG BROTHER is watching you!!!]
IMDBGreat adaptation of a great novel. I actually read the book when I was quite young and it gave me nightmares. Later I watched the movie, I didn't have nightmares about living in a totalitarian world anymore but the fear is still there.
Imagine living in a world where your life is totally controlled by the government. A world in which love is forbidden. The idea has been presented in cinema many times but it's George Orwell's book and this adaptation that are the best.
Here is an excerpt from Roger Ebert's review.
George Orwell made no secret of the fact that his great novel 1984 was not really about the future but about the very time he wrote it in, the bleak years after World War II when England shivered in poverty and hunger. In a novel where passion is depicted as a crime, the greatest passion is expressed, not for sex, but for contraband strawberry jam, coffee and chocolate. What Orwell feared, when he wrote his novel in 1948, was that Hitlerism, Stalinism, centralism and conformity would catch hold and turn the world into a totalitarian prison camp. It is hard, looking around (he globe, to say that he was altogether wrong.
(full review here.)
Never thought I would say this, but...the sex scenes in this film have a tragic feel to them, because of the context in which the lovers are living. We watch them make love to each other and we know it's not going to last.
Great nudity. Great movie. Watch it.
