The master´s thesis is concerned with the movie adaptation of Nineteen Eighty-Four, which is based on the novel by George Orwell, and the film "The Sleeper", a parody of the famous novel. The theoretical topics of the theory of movie adaptations, dystopia, the life of George Orwell and Woody Allen, screenplay of "The Sleeper", are described with my own interpretations of elements of Allen´s parody in Orwell´s work. The master´s thesis then analyses The Sleeper parody and offers an interpretation of its features. Analysis of Nineteen Eighty-Four is also done from various perspectives. Magisterská práce se zabývá filmovou adaptací Nineteen Eighty-Four, která byla natočena na základě slavného románu George Orwella, a filmem "The Sleeper" parodií slavného románu. Teoretická východiska jako teorie filmových adaptací, dystopie, životů George Orwella a Woodyho Allena, autora filmu "The Sleeper", jsou popsány v této práci s vlastní interpretací parodie Allenova filmu v díle George Orwella. Tato magisterská práce poté analyzuje film "The Sleeper," a nabízí interpretaci jeho parodie. Analýza adaptace Nineteen Eighty-Four je také vytvořena z různých pohledů.
