1984 ist eine Verfilmung der gleichnamigen Dystopie von George Orwell. Sie wurde im „Orwell-Jahr“ 1984 von Michael Radford mit John Hurt in der Hauptrolle gedreht. Diese Filmversion wurde für ihre Vorlagentreue gelobt, die auch auf Orwells Erben zurückging, die mit der freieren Filmversion von 1956 nicht einverstanden waren. Die Rolle des O’Brien war die letzte Filmrolle Richard Burtons, dem der Film gewidmet ist.
