The fine and stunning screen adaptation of George Orwell's prophetic 1948 novel about a world in which the government completely controls the masses by controlling their thoughts, altering history and even changing the meaning of language to suit its needs. Winston Smith tries to discover love in an upside down world of never-ending war, criminalized dissent, pervasive disinformation, paranoia, and surveillance.
See you on Friday at Next Door, our delicious, warm and cozy indoor Guerilla Drive-In location. Bring yoself and at least two friends...
Santa Cruz Guerilla Drive-In Presents
Nineteen Eighty-Four
The fine and stunning screen adaptation of George Orwell's prophetic 1948 novel about a world in which the government completely controls the masses by controlling their thoughts, altering history and even changing the meaning of language to suit its needs. Winston Smith tries to discover love in an upside down world of never-ending war, criminalized dissent, pervasive disinformation, paranoia, and surveillance. If you see this film, and think Thank God, it isn't that bad here yet, you're missing the point.
John Ashcroft, Donald Rumsfeld, and Dick Cheney would rather you didn't understand all the ramifications of this film.
Friday February 11th, 8:00pm
Next Door, right next to the Rio Theater
1205 Soquel Avenue in Santa Cruz
BRING blankets, pillows, friends, wine, & food to share for intermission. Donations are greatly appreciated and directly support the project and the Revolutionary Garden Society who sponsors Guerilla Drive-In. (We are currently saving to get a spare projector bulb.)
SANTA CRUZ GUERILLA DRIVE-IN is exactly what it sounds like -- an outdoor movie theatre under the stars that springs up unexpectedly in the fields and industrial wastelands. Guerilla Drive-In is helping reclaim public space and transform our urban environment into the joyful playground it should be.
SUBURBAN WASTELAND LOCATION: S on Hwy 17 to Ocean St., L on Soquel Ave, up to the Rio Theater at 1205 Soquel. Next Door is next door to the theater.
