hmmm interesting   

I started watching this last night,  Chrissy, and am finishing it this morning.  I was aware of the movie made in 1984 but didn't know about this 1956 version.
It's interesting to see how the theme of "1984" was portrayed in the fifties.
Good catch.

glad you like.   

1984 is a 1956 film loosely based on the novel of the same name by George Orwell of a totalitarian future society. This is the first cinema rendition of the story, directed by Michael Anderson, and starring Edmond O'Brien. Also starring are Donald Pleasence, Jan Sterling, and Michael Redgrave. Pleasence also appeared in the 1954 television version of the film, playing the character of Syme, which in the film was amalgamated with that of Parsons. O'Brien, the antagonist, was renamed "O'Connor," possibly to avoid confusion with lead actor Edmond O'Brien.

After the customary distributor agreement expired, the film was withdrawn from the theatrical and TV distribution channels by Orwell's estate and was not legally obtainable for many years, although it has since been released on DVD and clips have surfaced on YouTube.

Interestng to compare the two.
