    The original book had a much darker ending. The human neighbors from varied farms came to marvel at what Napoleon had done and were praising him for it. In the end, in the eyes of the animals (especially the old mare, Clover) the pigs and men become indistinguishable.

    It's hard to say which ending to this story I like the most. Both have their merits.
    I remember, as I was reading the book, waiting and hoping for the part of the story, when Snowball would come back to Animal Farm and set things right. From the moment the book implies he got away, I had that hope that he would come back. I had that hope all the way through the book, and it was only when I read the last page that I realized the truth. Snowball wasn't coming.
    It's only later that I realized why the book ended the way it did. There is no Snowball who will come and save you from tyranny, you must save yourselves from it. By having Napoleon win, Orwell was teaching his readers how to spot the signs of corruption, and to be prepared to stop it. The animals didn’t do anything about it until it was too late.
    The movie's ending has intrigue as well. The ending, though hopeful, still has a realistic take on the rise and fall of tyrannical governments. The Narrator admits that this newest revolution will probably not break the cycle, that the promise of Animal Farm may never truly come to pass. But regardless of that sad thought, we must still work towards that goal. We must keep fighting for it.

    Many people are not happy with the ending of the movie.
    Back in the 1980s this movie began circulating in pirated VHS tapes in Communist Romania. Everybody recognized the direct paralells with the Soviet Union and indirect parallels with how the monarchy was overthrown in Romania by force in 1947 and a new priviledged class of communists took over, keeping the population underfed, uneducated and disinformed.
    The idea of a revolution to take down the authoritarian autocratic regime was nothing short of fantasy until december 1989. And when it happened, it happened just like in the movie, with the dictator being rushed from his palace and ending in front of a firing squad while people burned his portraits in the streets.
    So we Romanians thoroughly enjoyed seeing this ending :) it gave us hope.

      Yeah, i remember learning about the romanian revolution. It kinda showed how ceacescu was gonna hold on as long as possible. It was really short too, at only 16 days from the first riots organised by a hungarian priest in translyvania to ceacescus exection.
      I find it interesting they put him on trial. What was his defence? How do you explain basically genocide on romania?

      In short,
      The trial was a kangaroo court. Even his designated defence lawyer was accusing him. It lasted for about 20 minutes (the full tape is available online, including the execution) and the presidential couple was escorted outside and executed by a firing squad in the courtyard. This was done because the new government, made up of new generation party members and disgruntled staff wanted to evade a civil war with loyalist military branches and also because they didn't want their former boss to talk. In Romania it is called the Romanian Revolution, but it was more like a coup d'etat. Tomato / tomato :))
      In long:
      - Yes. Ceausescu had gone mad with power. He was surrounded by yes-men who made him feel safe and think that the entire country loves him while plotting behind his back. (for reference he was 71 when this happened, Trump is 78)
      - It is pretty much agreed that Ceausescu's last way out would have been the 14th Communist Congress in November 1989, when could have just stepped down from his position as President and allow a peaceful transition of power. (for reference, the Berlin Wall fell on November 9th 1989, so the wind of change was already brewing in communist block)
      - it was short because it was organised in advance and most likely received help from the outside (CIA and KGB, backed by agreements between Reagan and Gorbachev) . The night that Ceausescu fled from the Palace, a Romanian high ranking general (General Militaru) is even seen on tape from the newly occupied Central Committee, discussing with Ion Iliescu (future president) and Petre Roman (future Prime Minister) about the name of the new party to take power. They couldn't decide on the name and Militaru said "Why change it now? We decided on National Salvation Front 6 months ago!"
      - How much was László Tőkés (the hungarian priest you mentioned) a pretext, I don't know. Some say the entire incident was orchestrated to spark the revolution (giving the army a reason for a bloody reprisal) some say it was a real local protest and the new branch of the Securitate (secret police) used it to activate their operation.
      - The entire Revolution was a mix of half-assed orchestrated plans and general confusion. Nobody knew what is going on, who to trust... a situation that the National Salvation Front fed and benefited from, creating a state of chaos and how swiftly they need to secure power (without elections) to prevent the country from falling into civil war. For a few weeks after Ceausescu's flee by helicopter there was a rumour that TERRORISTS loyal to the old regime have infiltrated the country and trying to gain power. This led to a lot of useless bloodshed between basically different branches of the military, secret police and police killing each other out of confusion and paranoia.

      The animated ending gets rid of the most poignant part of the entire novella and it does so because the original ending condemns Napoleon not because he’s uniquely evil but because his evilness has made him indistinguishable from the humans(who are a metaphor for capitalism). The entire point of the book is that Napoleon(a metaphor for Stalin) took power after a good revolution(the October revolution) and through oppressive means and corruption recreates the same conditions as experienced under the previous system.
