There was a movie version made in 1955, but I have not
seen that one recently so I will discuss the more recent made-for-tv adaptation from TNT
in 1999. One of the most significant differences between the two versions is in the
narration. The book has a third person narrator that is not quite omniscient. The
movie is narrated by Jessie, a Border Collie.
The plot of
the movie basically follows the book, although there is some creative license taken.
For example, the movie shows propaganda films made by the pigs after they discover that
the television keeps the animals entertained.
