    Violence is an outlet but not a method or result, and we often seek the causes of violence but not its effects. Kubrick's sober and dark humorous tones and images appropriately depict this future bizarre and absurd society so realistically that it makes us feel that this strange society is where we...

    Too much thinking in my mind, poor language ability, it is difficult to describe a good movie is a divergent point that makes you think of many sides of the world. It has always been believed that morality is the product of social civilization. Sexual evil or goodness are formulated under a moral standard, but not To deny human nature is to contain the desire for sex and potential evil factors to deliberately suppress and control each of us, how is it not like all the human beings in this...

    88/100 The reason Kubrick makes my jaw drop every time is probably because he always pulls the id's desires into the ego level for discussion. Behavioral therapy designed using conditioned stimuli in Pavlov's classic conditioned response, notorious for Internet addiction and homosexuality, and oh yes, cute horror movies and ubiquitous advertisements , people are much easier to control than they...

    2.5/5 The sudden color change in the opening scene brings the film into a rather strange atmosphere, including various incomprehensible plot character behaviors and expressive buildings and models, as well as Malcolm's exaggerated performances. I once thought it was a surreal work and the philosophical issues discussed in the film, human rights blabla, were not properly expressed. I like "O Lucky Man" 3 years...

    The twisted evil smile and exaggerated half eyelashes at the beginning are a nightmare for me. Qu Zhongyu and Bei Jiu were impressed. Politics itself is anti-human and anti-human. Even if you can choose to decide what will happen to yourself, you are powerless to resist the government and become a Clockwork Orange, and the saddest thing is that you become a Clockwork Orange without knowing...

    Is this a movie? This is a complete cult book! I have to kneel in Kubrick's advanced perspective. It turns out that the movie can be shot like this, the cause and effect can be repaid in this way, and the narrative and soundtrack can be used so much, but in the end it presents a beautiful morbid American style. Through room layout, repressed space, props, color and streamlined clips, posters, sculptures, sexuality is repeatedly "autosuggested". Untamed elephants are invincible, and they are...

    1. I really like the use of colors and the part where Alex and the two girls meet from the playground until they go home; 2. I saw the source of Suck It and See (not a fan; 3. From the title of the film, it can be seen that humans are Like clockwork, it ends and starts again, time becomes a circle, and Alex finally returns to himself. The film projects society's moral judgment of people, when we judge others, are we ourselves? Stuck in a...

    It's extreme, grotesque, bohemian, like a Dada work. The core of the story is an insinuation of the contradictions in various fields of British society at that time. PS: I found that Kubrick's habit of playing with the camera is very similar to...

    Weird but wonderful violent movies, such a movie can be made in 1971, what kind of world view does Kubrick have? There is neither pure evil nor pure good in this world. The world is full of violence, but violence must be overcome by violence. We expect freedom to be bound by various social norms. Teacher Ai Iijima has said that life is full of contradictions....

    I am a clockwork orange

    There are a thousand clockwork oranges in the eyes of a thousand people, and I am only one of them. When I started watching this film, I was fooled by the gorgeous narrative technique. This is not the theme of the film. It's not just telling us that a young man is unruly. Perverted.. Perverted is...

    Can't Fit Short Review Vol.2

    Why is Kubrick so powerful? hard water? When I'm done, I would like to thank you. Personal feeling is inseparable from experience and perception. If there is no other experience, how to think about those individuals who fit the film? I don't think there is any awkwardness, this is the powerful...

A Clockwork Orange quotes

  • Prison Chaplain: What's it going to be, eh? Is it going to be in and out of institutions like this? Well, more in and out for most of ya! Or are you going to attend to the Divine Word and realise the punishments that await unrepentant sinners in the next world as well as this? A lot of idiots you are, selling your own birthright for a saucer of cold porridge! The thrill of theft! Of violence! The urge to live easy! Well, I ask you what is it worth when we have undeniable truth - yes! Incontrovertible evidence that Hell exists! I know! I know my friends! I have been informed in visions that there is a place darker than any prison, hotter than any flame of human fire, where souls of unrepentant criminal sinners like yourselves...!

    [an inmate belches, prompting the rest to laugh]

    Prison Chaplain: Don't you laugh, damn you! Don't you laugh! I say like yourselves scream in endless and unendurable agony! Their skin rotting and peeling! A fireball spinning in their screaming guts! I know! Oh yes, I know!

    [Another inmate makes a raspberry noise, prompting them to laugh again]

  • Chief Guard Barnes: Pick that up and put it down properly!
