I’ve read “1984” twice, and I actually think the movie “Brazil” is a lot more realistic.

Huh? You can find parallels for everything in 1984 in modern day USSA. Nothing in the book is too difficult to imagine.

It carries many of the same threads as the book; an oppressive central government, the idyllic love interest, and the eventual capture, torture, and destruction of the main character.
