A Clockwork Orange	comment	A Clockwork Orange is a 1971 film by Stanley Kubrick based on the eponymous 1962 novella by Anthony Burgess.In a dystopian alternate England where street crime is rampant and youths are uncontrollable, teenage delinquent Alex DeLarge (Malcolm McDowell) and his "Droogs" Dim, Georgie and Pete (Warren Clarke, James Marcus, Michael Tarn) prowl the night spreading terror and destruction wherever they go, just for kicks. By daybreak, Alex returns home to his vapid parents, who turn a blind eye to his activities, and enjoys his second favorite thing in the world: Classical Music, and that of Ludwig van Beethoven above all.After committing a murder and being betrayed by his underlings, Alex ends up in prison for his crime. When he discovers that the government is planning to test an experimental aversion therapy treatment on a prisoner in exchange for freedom, Alex jumps at the opportunity — until the treatment turns out to be a nightmare and leaves him unable to defend himself. It gets worse when Alex, after being released from prison, keeps bumping into vengeful victims of his.Among the elements that comprise the film's famously bleak tone is a soundtrack that incorporates a lot of classical music (a Kubrick habit), some of which was rearranged by Wendy Carlos on a Moog synthesizer.Infamously, the film cuts out the epilogue that was present in the original version of the story due to it being removed from many editions of the book in its early international release. It involved major Character Development and something resembling a Happy Ending for Alex. Though Burgess apparently contacted Kubrick towards the end of production, the director preferred the ending that he had planned, claiming the original diluted the message in the story. Burgess remained unhappy about the film adaptation, and later re-released the novel with added commentary about its hermeneutics.The film was accompanied by the pornographic animated short Kama Sutra Rides Again in theaters in the UK, on the personal selection of Kubrick himself. The film had a very troubled release in Spain, where it was banned by dictator Francisco Franco; a documentary on the subject, A Forbidden Orange, was released in 2021 on HBO Max, narrated by McDowell himself.The Kubrick film adaptation ended up getting inducted into National Film Registry in 2020.

A Clockwork Orange / int_121b3725	type	Age Lift
A Clockwork Orange / int_121b3725	comment	Age Lift: Alex is 15 at the start of the book, while in the film, he's 17 and being played by a 27-year-old. The young female parts are also aged up from underage children to around Alex's age. An exception comes in the form of the Cat Lady, who is aged down from a frail old crone into a more athletic, middle-aged woman, as Kubrick thought it would be a more interesting conflict if Alex went up against a character that could actually hold her own in a fight against him, rather than someone he could easily physically overpower.

The Alex from the beginning is a tried and true bastard who one could understandably deem deserving every bit of punishment he endures, but it comes off a little more twisted in the state he's left in after the Ludovico treatment. Alex himself (along with his gang of droogs) dishes this trope out on a rival gang who are about to rape a woman, managing to best them in a fight before savagely beating them.

He doesn't count on the treatment being as effective as it is.

A Clockwork Orange / int_4e3d253b	comment	Downer Ending: The film controversially removed the vital last chapter of the novel, altering the message of the entire work substantially. In the novel, Alex voluntarily relinquishes his former life of ultraviolence and rape after having the effects of the brainwashing "Ludovico technique" reversed, and hence having his ability to act as an autonomous moral agent restored. In the film, he is implied to have simply returned to his previous vicious and amoral state with the chilling final words, "I was cured, all right." This is because pre-1986 copies of the novel for the U.S. market, like the one that Kubrick bought, were missing the final chapter. Kubrick became aware of the omitted chapter in the middle of writing the screenplay, but he left it out because he preferred the book without it. Even in the film, however, it was clear that the reversal of the "Ludovico Technique" was not done to right some moral or ethical wrong or to show any true concern for Alex's state ... except as his value as poster boy for one government faction against the other, leaving him still no more than a pawn in the game of life.

But he certainly never intended to lose his pet snake, or for his parents to take in a boarder and allow the boarder to rent out Alex's room, and they even consider said boarder as their son. The homeless old Irishman gets a well-deserved Dog Bites Back moment at Alex's expense.

Used in Alex's moments of bliss at first, then gets used by Frank Alexander to have him commit suicide since he's sick whenever he hears something from the Ninth Symphony. The Ode to Joy from the above Ninth Symphony is used twice. Once when Alex visits the vinyl records store, and once during the Ludovico Treatment with pictures from Nazi Germany, a combination that ends up making Alex sick. "Singin' in the Rain" too, first when Alex sings it as he rapes Frank Alexander's wife, then when he sings it while taking a bath at Alexander's house, blowing his cover. And then in the closing credits.

Also, the film's most infamous scene features the gang torturing a couple while Alex performs "Singin' in the Rain". While filming the scene, Kubrick decided on a whim to have Alex sing a song, and Malcolm McDowell chose the song simply because he knew all the lyrics. In-universe, Alex strongly objects to the use of Beethoven's Ninth, and specifically the "Ode to Joy", as the soundtrack to the horrifying scenes of rape and violence used in the Ludovico Treatment.

The Cat Lady, right before Alex bashes her skull in with the phallic sculpture. Alex again when he finds that Beethoven is being played during the test. He was ok with having the violent and sexual imagery taken from him, but he flips out when that piece of music is used, knowing what will happen. After being carried into the writer's home by the bodyguard, and explaining to him what had happened, the writer suddenly exclaimed "I know you!" But it's because he recognized Alex's picture in the papers that morning, rather than recognizing him as the rapist of his wife. There's a very unsettling◊ low-angle shot of Frank Alexander's face contorting in horror when he realizes who Alex really is. This is no doubt part of his motivation for torturing Alex with Beethoven's Ninth. The actor, Patrick Magee, is said to have then told Kubrick "I feel like I just took a shit in front of everyone".

The cops are caricatures of authority, exceedingly pompous in rituals and obvious hypocrites, the doctor and nurse take a while to respond to the patient because they are having quickie sex behind a patient's curtain, and the writer Alexander is an obvious strawman hypocrite.

The film also does this in a more pleasant way to Alex's consensual three-way with a couple of girls pre-Technique, which is sped up and set to the William Tell Overture with hilarious results that underscore how little sex means to him.

A Clockwork Orange / int_c75df49a	comment	Shout-Out: The film's most (in)famous scene is a sort of wicked reenactment of Gene Kelly Singin' in the Rain. During one of his fantasies Alex imagines himself as Dracula, specifically like Christopher Lee's iconic image, from Horror of Dracula. Kubrick references a few of his own movies: At the music shop where Alex meets the two girls who who he later takes home, a poster for 2001: A Space Odyssey can be seen hanging from the table. In the same scene, Pink Floyd's Atom Heart Mother album can be seen. It's also a bit of an allusion to the scuffle between Stanley Kubrick and the band, since they wanted to create an album that sampled bits and pieces of sounds from ''2001'' and he wanted to sample bits of their music in his films, but they both refused each other's offers. The code numbers of the communications device from Dr. Strangelove are "CRM-114". In A Clockwork Orange, one of the vials containing drugs used to condition Alex for the Ludovico treatment is labelled "serum 114". The finale where Alex jumps out the window and we see a first-person view of Alex jumping out with the camera falling out the window simulating his fall is one for Max Ophuls' Le Plaisir, whose third story ends this way. Ophuls' film is even more elaborate since it's a single setup following a girl climbing up the stairs and jumping out the window with the camera hitting the ground. Ophuls was one of Kubrick's favorite film-makers.

In the book, Alex is even younger and more violently depraved. Most notably, the sex scene in the film was originally Alex raping two 10-year-olds (whereas in the film they are clearly the same age as Alex and have consensual sex with him). The film also lightens things up with occasional slapstick humor. Likewise, in the book after he is free from the Ludovico treatment he fantasizes about rampaging around the world committing ultraviolence, whereas in the film he imagines having sex with one woman.

A Clockwork Orange / int_e7e558	comment	The Oner: In one scene, Alex's head is forced into an (obviously full) water trough while he is brutally beaten (complete with zany 'bong' sound effects). Apparently there was actually a breathing apparatus under the water, but it failed to work properly and McDowell did, indeed, nearly drown. The film's opening shot is one of the most iconic oners in film history, showing Alex giving a menacing, unblinking Kubrick Stare to the viewer as the camera slowly pans out and he gives a voiceover monologue.

Alex whacks Georgie in the groin with his cane as the droogs walk along the marina, then kicks him into the water. In the police station, Alex gets a good shot in to the cop harassing him.

A Clockwork Orange / int_eb251937	comment	Dirty Cop: After being released from prison, Alex is horrified to discover that his treacherous gang members George and Dim are now bobbies. "A job for two who are now of job-age. The police!" Given Georgie's previous interest in earning money for their crimes, it's pretty clear that they're motivated purely to get paid for brutalizing people. When they cross paths with Alex again, he's being assaulted by a group of homeless people. They arrest him even though he didn't start the fight, take him into the countryside, and proceed to beat him bloody and nearly drown him.

A Clockwork Orange / int_fb3576b2	comment	The Dog Bites Back: Alex gets betrayed by Georgie and Dim right as he tries to escape from the Crazy Cat Lady murder scene. He had "corrected" them earlier to reassert his authority on them, by hitting Georgie in the stomach and throwing him in a river, and then throwing Dim in the same river and slashing his hand. The last third of the film examines the complex moral footing of Alex's former enemies (and two of his former Droogs) brutalizing him while he is unable to defend himself due to the Ludovico Treatment. Alex deserves punishment, but is this really justice?
