Although Animal Farm is about the Russian Revolution, there is a lot to be learned from it.

Thanks for sharing. I will watch it tonight. I hope it is better than the film adaptation of 1984. I thought that movie was almost worthless if you hadn’t read the book.

It’s a touch different from the book, but still a great adaptation.

Enjoy!

I thought the 1984 with John Hurt and Richard Burton was great, but I'm such a mark when it comes to that book that I would think it's great even if Anthony and Huma Weiner co-starred as Winston and Julia. The adaptation that the BBC did in 1954 should be considered a crime against humanity.

I agree. It followed the storyline and the essence of the book.

A side note.

One of the main females stars, at one point is nude with a significant amount of pubic hair showing.

The reaction by the older teens and their friends is such that one would think that pubic hair is cooties.

amazing

I use

http://www.webshots.com

Subscription.

The free version only allows 5 nonprofessional photos downloaded/per day. The subscription is essentially unlimited.

Great stuff—fantastic scenic stuff from all over the world. Then I can add in whatever photos I find along the way . . . or my own.

http://www.photobucket.com

has lots of great stuff under many topics.

The Orwell stuff comes from photobucket.

I’m going to check these links out.

The one about 1984 not being an instruction manual is now my wallpaper.

Thanks again!
