Big Brother from 1984 is the leader of the party. The idea of "Big Brother is watching" that is repeatedly stated in 1984 is shown in the movie Eagle Eye, starring Shia Lebouef. Big Brother is depicted as a laconic figure, harsh but mysterious. In both the movie and book, the people cede to the higher power, satiating their "master." These cryptic figures treated the people with little respect, and would disipline them if they attempted to resist. Nearing the climax of both the novel and movie, the protaganists meander from the requests of the greater power. The difference is that in Eagle Eye, the protaganists are successful, where Winston and the vivacious Julia were not.
