1984

Yes. The ominous year. 1984. Big Brother. The book by Orwell. I read it for a High School assignment and found it depressing. Of course, not as depressing as the actual dictatorships in real time. Nevertheless, the book didn't have an impact on me as much as other books I read during my high school years. No. The year 1984 was memorable for other reasonr. No. Not the trashing of Mondale by Ronald Reagan in the presidential elections. Though, I can't still see how I survived that era, the year were made memorable and tolerable by two cult films:

The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension




Repo Man
