George Orwell (4): The Lion and the Unicorn (1984x2)

Data di messa in onda: Gen 03, 1984

For a brief period after the Spanish Civil War, Orwell was a revolutionary socialist, violently opposed to the coming war with Germany. Tonight's film shows his sudden emergence as a patriot in 1940, his ill-starred career as a producer at the BBC, and later as a columnist for 'Tribune'. The film closes with the end of the war and the writing of Orwell's masterpiece Animal Farm.
