apart. However, in the film V for Vendetta and Ray Bradbury 's novel, Fahrenheit 451, a section of this backbone has been taken over by a disease which is trying to take control of the functions which make up a full body. This backbone analogy can be compared to the governments in both the book and the film. The backbone acts as technology, and the disease acts as the government using this technology, or at least trying to, in order to establish and maintain control. In both, V for Vendetta and…

living, have conquered the universe,” explained V during Evey’s first tour of the Shadow Gallery (Moore, et al. 43).

He shows that there are many complex paradoxical elements present in Shakespeare’s…

After reading the book, “1984” by George Orwell, and viewing the movie “V for Vendetta” there have been many connections made between the characters of these two pieces.
