Nineteen-Eighty Four - BBC TV MOVIE 1954 VHSRIP XVID torrent

1984 by George Orwell.. An BBC Production 1954.

Notes:

I didnt rip this, all credits go to the creator of this rip. Its an astonishingly good rip considering its age. I grabbed this from a Private Tracker.

Info:
Adapted by Nigel Kneale, produced by Rudolph Cartier and starring Andre Morrell
(the "team" behind "Quatermass and the Pit") and a young Peter Cushing.

The BBC did an amazing job of translating Orwell's bleak book onto the screen. It is very dark and the treatment of Smith at the end of the film is not glossed over, this is really daring given the time it was made.

This is a TV movie, the first film based on the novel, 2 years later a US movie version was made which also starred Donald Pleasance

This version stays truest to the novel. I can't think of one bad thing about this film, apart from the fact you can't buy it anywhere(legally).

The last broadcast of the production was on July 1st 1994 to mark the death of Rudolph Cartier, this is taken from a VHS Recording.
