"1984"
1984
Directed by Michael Radford
Orwell's vision
of a dark, totalitarian future where love is forbidden comes to the screen
in a strong feature, with excellent performances by John Hurt and Richard
Burton. "A remarkably good translation of George Orwell's novel,
deliberately (rather than coincidentally) made in 1984, and infinitely
superior to the 1956 version...the film manages to remain true both to
Orwell's projections and their contemporary meanings" (Jonathan Rosenbaum,
Chicago Reader). Letterboxed 16x9 widescreen. Optional French and
Spanish subtitles. 115 minutes. |
