Michael Cannon & Matthew Feeney return to the show to discuss Orwell’s totalitarian society from his classic novel, 1984, that was eventually turned into a lessâ€â€‹thanâ€â€‹impressive film.Winston Smith is a minor government employee, living in Oceania, whose job involves the rewriting of history in a manner that casts his fictional country’s leaders in a charitable light. And in this closelyâ€â€‹monitored society, there is no way to escape from Big Brother. A classic novel written by George Orwell and published in 1949 was adapted for the big screen in 1984.
