-=- A Clockwork Orange -=-

I'm glad they dispensed with Chapter 21 🙂

one of the best british film eva

another thread on my favorite book/movie

It's a true masterpiece, let The Shining hide, humiliated!

Kubrick v.v. good. Good for you brain.

But doesn't the final chapter (removed from the US edition and the film) ruin it?

kubrick is a genious
i picked up the dvd today for 6 pounds
its brilliant...definetly in my top 10 films of all time

Yes I agree, a true masterpiece!! Really unlike any other film. Especially love the way the music connects the whole film and gives it this eery magical decadence. And no one could have played it better than Malcom McDowell. Just perfect casting.

This film was greatly responsible for my corruption!!!!! My descent into a life of decadence and depravity!! Truly, it changed my life!

I loved how they treated him with indifference in prison, made him stand at the white line as in blues bros.

Well, well, well! Well if it isn't fat stinking billy goat Billy Boy in poison! How art thou, thou globby bottle of cheap stinking chip oil? Come and get one in the yarbles, if ya have any yarble, ya eunuch jelly thou!

lol

Well! Well well well! Well well well well! If it isn't little Alex! Long time no viddy droog how goes?

*In French it went something like* Alors! Mais ouis mais ouis mais ouis...

Yarbles! Great bolshy yarblockos to you. I'll meet you with chain or nozh or britva anytime. I'm not having you aiming tolchocks at me reasonless. It stands to reason, I won't have it.

lol great dialogue

An odd scrap any time you say Dean

lol
Watch that, do watch that O shaber, if to continue to be on live thou, dost wist?

I really cannot get into this movie. I've tried watching it today but it's just too weird. Too weird for me!!!!!!!

One of my favorites. When I was younger, my friends and I would sometimes get high and then watch it.

Superb film! Love it!!!

Amazing movie, one of the best cult movies.

A CLOCKWORK ORANGE amongst them. I thought it an interesting time capsule film with some interesting things to say. I think it's banning was due to the rape scene. It's vital to the character development and could'nt be removed as not alone would it destroy the film's *raison d'etre* but Stanley Kubrick has said on many occasions that he dosen't like his works interfered with...

For once THE DIRECTOR had his final say! ✅

It was due to people copying scenes from the movie. There were gangs who would commit the same sort of crimes, dressed in the same attire. Anthony Burgess also requested that the film should stop being shown, as he didn't want his book to become an influence on crime, he wrote it as a social commentary, not a rallying point for criminals - was the thinking behind it.

This is a great film. I think it's better than The Shining and Full Metal Jacket.

Yep, great movie. Just one of the many brilliant masterpieces from Stanley Kubrick.

I thought the movie was fun.

And, yes, I laughed really hard during the penis sculpture beat down scene.

I really liked the music.

My favorite part of the movie: the underboob (underboob is the ultimate boob!) camera shot scene! Such delicious bewbz and I REALLY felt sorry for the guy: being all pwned by that psycho-torture shit.

Believe it or not, I saw it on recomendation from Imp, a while back (like 2 or 3 years ago.)
