      daniel de lewis The scene he was describing is from a fictional book, so to embody the character he was doing a little acting to get his point across. This is what good storytellers do. So no it’s not real life. Those events did not happen. He is just saying that it’s similar to what we are living and the book has prophetic qualities, which I totally agree with.

    @XaeeD 6 ปีที่แล้ว +146

    After the first go I already got it. "How many fingers am I holding up?" FOUR *zap* pain "How many fingers am I holding up?"
    I paused the video. What would I say? Obviously, it's not a trick question, and he's not looking for a truthful answer: reality/truth is irrelevant. So what do you answer the second time? Saying four won't cut it. Do you pick a random number and risk getting zapped a couple more times? What's the point? Who's asking the question and why? My response, after the first time, was: "I don't know, you tell me!" That.. that's the correct response. That's the answer he wants from you. He wants you to comply, to submit to his authority, he wants you to relinquish your own thoughts, ideas and views, and he's gonna be the one to tell you what's what. So the only correct answer is to ask him how many fingers he's holding up, and whatever he tells you, that's the new reality now. The thought police: it's them telling you what/how to think. Don't want to comply? Then there's the pain for you.
    Awesome lesson!

    I'm with mister Duke on this; 1984 was very prescriptive for what was to come. . . .I'm also reminded of one of Orwell's pretty famous quotes "The future looks like a boot stomping on a human face repeatedly."

    Just ran across some interviews with Bill Duke & so impressed with him. Only seen some of his acting. (John Hurt). Most powerful part for me in the book "1984" was when the lover screams to torture the other, as final soul crushing moment. Facing your worst fear (rats going to eat your face) and beg the system to torture the one you love the most. After that the system had won & they could release John Hurt back into society.

READ THE BOOK before you interview him. You could crash read that in 2 days. You would appear much more aware and in tune w/ the interviewee.

It's like people are too busy looking for excuses for why they're totally incompetent at what they do for a living. Take, for example, these two jerk offs who commented before me...finding an excuse for why she could not have read 1984. If you haven't read that book, you're not even well educated enough to be a journalist in America! Get a descent education for crying out loud. Don't just call yourself a journalist when you're not well-read and have gained some life experience. You should not be asking anyone...anything.

Students develop a decent understanding of maths, sciences, languages, some hands-on skills such as welding, woodwork, cooking plus team building exercises in an environment where we're encouraged to develop social bonding skills and establish life-long friendships. Sure, there are a number of things pertinent to being an adult which we don't learn at school but I rarely - if ever - experienced anything throughout my school years that in retrospect were indoctrinating falsehoods.

    1984 is an awesome book and a great movie. The whole concept of rewriting of history on a daily basis ,via the ministry of"truth". The complete abolition of the family replaced by the worship and adoration of big brother. The creation of fictional wars with changing adversaries to keep the population on the edge of starvation and in constant fear. Creating a fictional rebel named Goldberg to ferret out secret rebels in society. It is all brilliant!!

    1984 was a manual . It planted seeds in the minds of everyone that read it . It was institutionalised literally by making it mandatory study for pre teens .
    Reasons- in order for a reality to come by tjat is so radical large numbers ( critical mass ) of ppl have to ficus on it with fear or with desire. That number was acheived by making it popular. Law of attraction is used by governments , politicians through media & entertainment . Actors become oscar recipients when they furthering agendas . This man even looks evil.
