1984 Movie

If there were to be a new 1984 movie made next year, who would be cast for the major characters? I have an idea but I'd love to hear some input!

My Ideas: Winston- Liam Neeson Julia- Tilda Swinton O'Brien- Sam Neill

New 1984 by George Orwell Theory

So, I proposed this theory in the final 1984 test and ended up freaking my teacher out. I'm serious, she approached me during lunch time and said that she spent literally around 20 minutes just freaking out. Anyway, here's the theory. Julia is affiliated with Big Brother. I mean, her job working for Big Brother would be to have love affairs with the rebels to eventually lead them to be caught, and that everything Winston knew about her (minus the love affairs she had) was all an act. She didn't really start following him (or causing him to notice her) until he started writing the diary, the same time O'Brien says they started watching him during Interrogation. Also, O'Brien said that Julia betrayed him quick and then suddenly became unrecognizable. But to who? To Winston. The Party probably already recognized her, to begin with. Or it could be her new "self" was who she'd be like to the next corrupt person. Now, Julia doesn't exactly seem weak and all that. So why didn't she fight to keep Winston on her mind? It was evident during her and Winston's affair, that she didn't seem to care about bringing the party down, she just wanted to take it "in the moment". It could be because she fails to see that if the Party falls she could be with Winston for life, however, it could also be because she enjoys having love affairs to help Big Brother. In that case, Julia's "I betrayed you" to Winston was simply her good doublethink.

Now, before you all comment with how my theory is simply stupid, keep one thing in mind, I was putting down nonsense, on the test. It just so happens that my teacher thinks that this makes sense. I simply thought I would place it on Reddit to see what everyone thinks.

Where can I find a Newspeak dictionary?

Hello, I'm looking for a place to buy a Newspeak Dictionary. Is there a definitive edition just yet? If so, where could I get it?

Thank you

Were the Inner Party better off than people before the revolution?

Although members of the Inner Party have it made compared to members of the Outer Party, were their standards of living better than regular people before the Great Revolution occurred?

It's been 17 days since the Proles revolted and the Eurasian government, somehow aware of the uprising, has ordered its army to invade.

The Ministries of Love and Peace lie in ruins with the Ministries of Truth and the Ministry of Plenty still aflame. Inner party members and members of the Thought Police are being hunted down, tortured, and fed to the rats to be eaten alive. Inner party members such as myself are being rounded up and sent to labor camps. I, Winston Smith, have managed to evade the Prole patrols and have escaped out into the wooded countryside only to be welcomed by explosions from Eurasian bombing runs. The Proles, those naive idiots, have turned their backs on Big Brother and have betrayed their country. Those bastards, they've killed us all. And for what? A little freedom? They don't get it. They just don't get it. Freedom is slavery. 2 + 2 = 5.
