Nineteen Eighty-Four
1984 · 1h 53m · Drama, Science Fiction, Thriller · United Kingdom · Rated R (US)
George Orwell's terrifying vision comes to the screen.
Winston Smith is a government employee whose job involves the rewriting of history in a manner that casts his fictional country's leaders in a charitable light. His trysts with Julia provide his only measure of enjoyment, but lawmakers frown on the relationship -- and in this closely monitored society, there is no escape from Big Brother.
