Huh?  You ever been in a library?  Ever take an English course?
Ever hear of this guy named George Orwell?  He was a little known
writer, wrote a couple of books, some good, some bad.  Wrote this
one book called *1984*, a futuristic novel published in 1948 in
England, made it to the States in 1949.  About this guy named Winston
and his society.  Back then, you see, 1984 WAS the future.

In 1956, a movie was made based upon this book.  And then, in 1984,
another company gathered to film a more faithful account.  This time
it included the ending the book had, depressing or not.

I suggest you read the book.  It might explain the movie a bit more.
