Discovered this 1954 BBC teleplay, youtube has entire film. Just watched the first segment, looks a lot better than the cheesy movie with Edmund O'Brien from the same era.

Originally posted by eldragonflyNo, I just think Peter Cushing's interpretation of Winston Smith and his quiet desperation is better than the two movies that followed. Look for Donald Pleasance as Syme, he was in the '56 movie also. Again, his part was better in the BBC production.

This BBC TV version shows the excellence of British TV and that Peter Cushing was a very talented actor. Even the young Queen was impressed!

The story makes me scared. It looks like the liberals has a total control in the society. People should watch the movie always prior to the elections to avoid ignorent mistakes!
