@Krangojolly well, when you're 'really, totally' down and out, you never come back to write about it. He was down and out, but survived and moved on. And it cost him.
Somehow, I imagined that line about going to the dogs sounding much more cynical and bitter out loud. The actor reads it as if living in the gutter was equal to getting a poor score in cricket.
Wow, I didn't know Orwell was poor.

@LegendKnight93 It is fictionalized, produced for the BBC Four film with an actor speaking in words written by Orwell himself.

I love George Orwells works, they are great. But he was never truly down and out, was he? Not really. Not totally.
