George Orwell | Animal Farm Animation (1954)

Film by Halas and Batchelor, based on the book Animal Farm by George Orwell. British animation (1954)

Billing itself as England's first animated movie, this adaptation of Animal Farm was funded by the CIA as part of an effort to make anti-communist propaganda during the cold war. Which definitely explains the altered ending that you could argue goes against George Orwell's intent.
