A Clockwork Orange
by Alexander''Goodness is something to be chosen. When a man cannot choose he ceases to be a man.''
The story of Alex and his droogs,(gang members) how they terrorize, rape and cause trouble. Betrayal from his Droogs follows and Alex soon becomes chosen for an experimental brainwashing technique in a prison complex with disastrous consequences.
Malcolm McDowell: Alex
Malcolm McDowell plays Alex the main character who tells the story, his way of speaking was intriguing and his journey was something to contemplate on.
I watched this for the first time recently and it being my 2nd Kubrick film(2001 being the first) i was apprehensive of seeing it. Was pleased with the narration and strange retro-music. I'm not a fan of the 70s and so being, the film to me looks and feels tacky in areas. For example the decor and fashion.
On the other hand the ideas raised in this are thought provoking and at the same time timeless and relevant even in today's society.
The first half of the film made me amused at such acts of violence or inadequacies. Alex performing ''I'm singing in the rain'' while raping a woman with husband watching will shock, the old ''in out''. With fate bringing him back later into the house, it will make you cringe.
It shocked me that once free will is taken away how helpless a person can become. How a programmed mind with blocked emotions isn't actually choosing he's lost this option entirely.
He's been stripped of his god given free will.
There was a point in the film where I could relate to how helpless Alex was. Unable to even defend himself or even listen to his favored Ludwig Van Beethoven. You're powerless to intervene and therein lies the beauty and genius to the backbone of the film.
When you get to the end you're bewildered, in a good way by what you've just witnessed. I know I was left breathless by the questions Orange raises in numerous intervals and occasions during the film's duration. The first half being the reckless endangerment while the second half being the consequences, the nightmarish repercussions.
''I was cured'' Alex says and you feel the journey of the film, you wonder, human nature is it correctable? I know what conclusion i came too, simply what defines us are not only our emotions but the choices that drive them and the freewill of acting upon the choice that lies within our power, good or evil. It's simply human nature. It's A Clockwork Orange.The future's bright, the future is Orange...
Maybe Kubrick peak calls or Kubrick's Clockwork Orange on your mobile via video messaging. Droogs and all, in out in out!
Ok ok... that joke was bad. Really bad!
Happy weekend friends!posted 21 days ago
