So, I have finished reading the book as my groupmates. Now I`d like to sum up some points.

While reading the English book, I`ve learned a lot of new words, combinations, etc. I think that I really improved my language skills. Also in my mind it was interesting to write a blog becouse it was a new kind of task in my experience. By the way my favourite task was filming the story. Honestly it`s one of my old dream to make a movie. To tell you the truth at the beginning I was scared to write a new posts becouse my English isn't excellent and I didn`t want another people reading my mistakes ^^"" But in general it was interesting to write and read my groupmates` blogs. It is better and more fruitful than just reading and writing down new words. But to be a better reader I think I need more and more practice.

Terrible reality

Comparing the actions described in the novel "1984 " by George Orwell with the modern world, at first it may seemed that they have nothing in common. But if tо peer, it isn`t so. The author describes a society that lives by the rules, which aim is to save this society from destruction or "decay." Elaborate rules and laws aimed at building a "common good". This implies a complete control over man: over his thoughts, words, actions. And even deeper over his feelings, emotions and experiences. Future world described by George Orwell, is the world of the past for us, because 1984 has passed. But is it truth? May be I`m repeating, but I want to say once again that correction of the truth can do any person now (who does write news or articles in Wikipedia?). It `s technically easy to implement in the Internet age, and why various departments attract more resources, when a person" puts "themselves and their thoughts on social networking pages? All goes to this. Yes, 1984 has passed, but there are a total control. All goes to this - education, the social network with all our data, which is considered an encyclopedia Wikipedia and the information which is not checked, the introduction of electronic passports ... The year isn `t important. The fact that the preconditions have already existed is important.

Filming the story

If I was the director of the "1984" movie , I would ...

Firstly, the main role would take Bradley Cooper. I see him very distinctly in the role of Winston Smith . I think he looks suitable and could play this role well .

For posters with Big Brother, I would  use the face of  Anthony Hopkins. I think his face is ideal for it. Especially after his role of Hannibal Lecter, everything are compressing inside.

I think that the role of Julia would played nice by Anne Hathaway. She is a good actress, and her miniature body is like Julia`s.

Secondly, during making the film, I would have included into the scenario the following scene.

1. Winston buys a diary and starts to write in it
2. Winston gets a love note
3. Winston and Julia fall into the Brotherhood
4. Winston and Julia are arrested
5. Winston are tortured and then released into the wild.

Of course, in addition to this scenes there would be other ones in the film, but I decided to mention about these because I think they are key .
