Its interesting that here in the year of Orwell (his birthday is June 25th,
BTW, and I am starting plans for a big brother party... Invitations
pending!) nobody has talked about Metropolis, the 1926(29?) silent film.
Standing on its own, its a very good and powerful movie, but  if you look
at the statement it makes back then and look at Orwell, you can see a
number of similarities.

Another seemingly forgotten but very good SF/Orwellian film is Modern
Times, with Charlie Chaplin. Besides recommending ALL C.C. films, this one
is exceptionally good (I rate it as one of the top three chaplins)...
