Animal Farm Page #4

Synopsis: Britain's second animated feature, which, despite the title and Disney-esque animal animation, is in fact a no-holds-barred adaptation of George Orwell's classic satire on Stalinism, with the animals taking over their farm by means of a revolutionary coup, but then discovering that although all animals are supposed to be equal, some are more equal than others...

from Mr. Whymper's

glue factory.

I was with him

right to the end,

his last words were:

forward comrades,

long live Napoleon.

And for the wicked rumour that Boxer

was sold to a glue factory

our belived leader

would never do that.

Long live Napoleon!

Long live Napoleon!

And that night,

the pigs drank

to Boxer's memory,

and the whisky

they had bought

with Boxer's life.

Years passed,

the seasons came and went.

The short animal lives fled by.

The completed windmill

stood as a monument

to its builders' fate

and sacrifice.

But the animals' revolution

was only dimly remembered.

Outwardly Animal Farm

appeared prosperous.

But the animals themselves

were no better off,

with the exception of the pigs

and their supreme leader

Napoleon.

This pig-run enterprise

now had many of the frills

of real civilization.

And one fine day,

pig delegates

from far and wide

arrived to Animal Farm

to celebrate

the coming of a new era.

ALL ANIMALS ARE EQUAL

BUT SOME ANIMALS ARE

MORE EQUAL THAN OTHERS

When reports

of this great change

reached them,

other animals

everywhere were incredulous.

Dismayed and indignant,

they headed toward Animal Farm

from all directions,

instinctively uniting

once again in common cause.

Loyal followers!

On farms

owned and operated

by the pigs

there is order and discipline.

All of the animals

do more work and eat less

than on other farms.

With this, I will encourage you

to make your loyal animals

work even harder

and eat even less.

To a greater Animal Farm.

To peace and plenty

under pig rule.

To the day when pigs

own and operate farms everywhere.

To the animals, it now seemed

that their world,

which may or may not

some day become

a happy place to live in,

was worse than ever

for ordinary creatures.

And another moment had come

when they must do

something about it.

George Orwell

Eric Arthur Blair (25 June 1903 – 21 January 1950), better known by his pen name George Orwell, was an English novelist, essayist, journalist and critic whose work is marked by lucid prose, awareness of social injustice, opposition to totalitarianism and outspoken support of democratic socialism.Orwell wrote literary criticism, poetry, fiction and polemical journalism. He is best known for the allegorical novella Animal Farm (1945) and the dystopian novel Nineteen Eighty-Four (1949). His non-fiction works, including The Road to Wigan Pier (1937), documenting his experience of working class life in the north of England; and Homage to Catalonia (1938), an account of his experiences in the Spanish Civil War, are widely acclaimed as are his essays on politics, literature, language and culture. In 2008, The Times ranked him second on a list of "The 50 greatest British writers since 1945".Orwell's work continues to influence popular and political culture and the term "Orwellian"—descriptive of totalitarian or authoritarian social practices—has entered the language together with many of his neologisms, including "Big Brother", "Thought Police", "Room 101", "memory hole", "newspeak", "doublethink", "proles", "unperson" and "thoughtcrime". more…
