Parsons | Nineteen Eighty-Four | Gregor Fisher

Movie: Nineteen Eighty-Four
Year: 1984
Character: Parsons
Actor: Gregor Fisher

Parsons is one of the countless subservient victims of ‘The Party’. Thoroughly brainwashed into the nightmare vision, he has become an enthusiastic advocate for the life of physical and intellectual slavery he has been sold as a utopian illusion. He eagerly carries out ‘The Party’s dirty work, keeping alert for potential thought-criminals, with the self-righteous vigor of a true believer.

A description of this character from the Novel:

“Parsons was Winston’s fellow employee at the Ministry of Truth. He was a fattish but active man of paralyzing stupidity, a mass of imbecile enthusiasms-one of those completely unquestioning, devoted drudges on whom, more even than on the thought police, the stability of the Party depended.” – George Orwell, 1984, Book 1, Chapter 2

Michael Biehn as Kyle Reese in The Terminator: "Listen, and understand! That Terminator is out there! It can't be bargained with. It can't be reasoned with. It doesn't feel pity, or remorse, or fear. And it absolutely will not stop, ever, until you are dead."
