This 1954 Animal Farm is well worth watching today. The scene at 1:05:10 hits hard: Napoleon’s portrait everywhere as fawning oligarchs arrive to toast the regime.
Impossible not to picture Trump and his circle of oligarchs.

@darcy1968.bsky.socialFinished @djtaylorwriter.bsky.social's excellent new book, stocked with literary yarns, on Tolkien. The chapter on #Orwell and #Tolkien I read with particular interest, learning a few new things. Here is my own thinking on the two writers. www.darcymoore.net/2022/03/19/o...

@tcwpodcasts.bsky.socialOrwell’s Animal Farm and 1984 remain essential reading for the digital age-revealing how propaganda, surveillance and manipulated information can shape what we believe.
