: anyhow anyone know if they have a movie for the book 1984? i gotta read the book for school.
It is a good book, not a difficult read, and besides, the teacher can tell if you've just seen the movie. Educators have a deal with the moviemakers that they cannot make the film exactly like the book so that we can catch all the little slackers when they think they're being sneaky. There is a british film adaptation of the book which I've heard is pretty good, but I don't know where you'd get your hands on a copy. Check imdb.com.

P.S. How off topic is this post? Is is excused because of the late hour?
Just in case--How do any of you reds feel about George Orwell? The TNT animal farm? That creeped me out.
