The year 1984 didn't turn out quite the way George Orwell imagined it. For instance, who could have dreamed that Liz Taylor and Carl Bernstein would go out or that Walter Cronkite would have penchant for dirty- looking women. And not even Orwell could have predicted that Pia Zadora and Bo Derek would plan to make a movie together. FLASH: Daryl Hannah refuses to flounder on talk show!
