This is a well made and well acted version of '1984'. It is faithful to the book. Very faithful. One flaw is that anyone watching who hasn't read the book, is unlikely to completely understand everything that is going on. For instance, the scene when Winston Smith sees an enormously fat woman, singing happily as she hangs out her washing and declares 'She's beautiful', can not be seen in its proper context on screen without a narrative.
