"1984" at the AFI -- Rose Day, 1st of Flowering, Year 225

Went to see 1984 with a local meet-up group. It's a bit weird to watch a movie like that with people who aren't particularly interested in dystopian literature and don't have much of a frame of reference for it.

No one else in the group knew V for Vendetta, The League of Extra-Ordinary Gentlemen: Black Dossier, or even Brazil, which at least is a movie, and all of which are in dialogue with or commenting on 1984 (at least the book version).
