You know how the book ends with Wintson realizing he loves Big Brother, and that's like the ultimate downer? The movie ends with him thinking back to Julia and yelling 'I LOVE YOU!', implying that he won in the end and The (communist) Party can't crush the human spirit.

Of course there a subtle hints throughout the book that INGSOC collapses long after Winston's death, but still.
