Animal Farm (1954 Film)

What Is It?

The 1954 British-American animated comedy-drama propaganda movie Animal Farm.

Animal Farm (1954)
George Orwell’s Animal Farm Animation (Full Movie)

This is how Wikipedia describes this animated movie:

Animal Farm is a 1954 British-American animated comedy-drama film produced by Halas and Batchelor, based on the book Animal Farm by George Orwell.

It was the first British animated feature (Water for Firefighting and Handling Ships, two feature length wartime training films, were produced earlier, but did not receive a formal cinema release).

The US CIA paid for the filming, part of the American cultural offensive during the Cold War, and influenced how Orwell’s ideas were to be presented.

The CIA initially funded Louis de Rochemont to begin work on a film version of Orwell’s work, and he hired Halas & Batchelor, an animation firm in London that had made propaganda films for the British government.[5]

Maurice Denham provided the voice for all the animals and as well as humans in the film.[6]

One Group Suddenly Conquers The World?

Last night I had several dreams but I woke up suddenly several times and I had to go use the bathroom each time, and for some reason I kept forgetting my dreams except for a few parts of one dream that I can barely remember part of.

This dream is very unclear and I forgot most of the dream unfortunately, so the dream will not make much sense and it is lacking proper context, but I will try to type what I remember of the dream; and I will try to guess/figure out what I think happened.
