As an Alpha-Plus, Bernard Marx (Harry Lloyd, Counterpart) is at the top of the heap, but his task of indoctrinating all those below him to believe that everyone is happy in New London is hampered by his own deep unhappiness.īernard is smitten with Lenina Crowne ( Jessica Brown Findlay, Downton Abbey), the Beta-plus whose aforementioned moments of intimacy he threw back in her face. Each person in New London is genetically modified, then trained from childhood, to conform to one of five strictly hierarchical castes. As in any dystopia onscreen - and Brave New World is plotted as rotely as any of them - the characters we follow are the square pegs.
