Though the events described by orwell did not come to pass in the real 1984, the films producers maintained a level of verisimilitude by shooting the scenes on the exact dates described in the novel. Horror film legends donald pleasence and nancy allen serve as the hosts and narrators for a compilation of scenes from many science fiction, crime drama, and horror movies of the 1930s through the 1980s. George orwell’s 1984 describes, in detail, the promiscuous affair between the married winston and his mistress, julia, as they rebel against the authority of the oceanian government The sexual content is grossly unnecessary and overly promiscuous, adding no value to the already lacking story The novel describes sexual content in graphic detail throughout several parts of the story With john hurt, richard burton, suzanna hamilton, cyril cusack
He meets a kindred spirit named julia and they fall into a love affair. From orwell’s ‘1984’ and huxley’s ‘brave new world’, what can we learn about sexual/political repression/freedom An essay and a novel offer a response.
