Orwell 1984 (Nineteen Eighty-Four) è un film britannico del 1984 diretto da Michael Radford, ed è tratto dal romanzo distopico 1984 di George Orwell, ripreso fedelmente al punto che molte scene sono state girate nel giorno in cui sono ambientate nel libro. È stato interpretato da John Hurt, Suzanna Hamilton e Richard Burton, alla sua ultima apparizione cinematografica. Alcuni critici lo considerano il remake di Nel 2000 non sorge il sole, del 1956.
