Clockwork Orange

Jul 15, 2004 13:37

"Stomping, whomping, stealing, singing, tap-dancing, violating. Derby-topped teddy-boy hooligan Alex (malcom mcdowell) has his own way of having a good time. He has it at the expense of others. Alex's journey from amoral punk to brainwashed proper citizen forms the dynamic arc of Stanley Kubrick's future-shock vision of Anothony Burgess' novel. Unforgettable images, startling musical counterpoints, the fascinating language used by Alex and his pals - Kubrick shapes them into a shattering whole. Hugely controversial when first released, A Clockwork Orange won the New York Film Critics Best Picture and Director honors and earned four Acedemy Award nominations, including Best Picture. The power of its art is such that still entices, shocks and holds us in its grasp."

-Movie Review by Netflix. Rated R.
