I'd love to adapt 1984 extremely faithfully but secretly adhering to that theory that 1984 has a biased narrator, and that Oceania is actually a quite effective and benevolent socialist state especially when given the context of a recent devastating nuclear war and an ongoing three way cold-war that Oceania cannot win outright. Show Winston as the petty misogynist with SA fantasies he is in the book. Show the peaceful and comfortable living conditions of the proletariat. Make the fanatical party members cool and given them amazing uniforms like a reverse empire from Star Wars, that tricks nerds into thinking state socialism is cool.
