Animal Farm (1954)
7/10
Worth watching
1 June 2006
I think the 1999 version was better myself, but this version is well worth watching. Of course the theme of the movie is the same as the book by George Orwell, a political message against communism. Because of this it has a rather brutal theme and I would not recommend this for small children.

My copy was made by Digiview and sold for $1.00 at WalMart. Well worth the buck.

In the movie a drunken tyrant farmer loses control of his farm when the animals revolt and take over. A benevolent pig, Major, leads the revolt and eventually pigs become the ruling class. The revolution is a success at first. Oppressed animals on other farms have their own revolutions too. As time passes corrupt, evil, pigs take over and the other animals end up more oppressed than ever.
