Regarding the subject: I watched it again after five years. I clearly remember the discomfort when I saw Alex being treated for the first time. I wanted to vomit just like the scene in the movie. I only remembered a lot of it in the movie. The nudity shots, such evil power, I understood a lot when I watched it again, maybe in addition to exploring the basic theme of "human nature is evil", while at the same time accompanied by the nature of human freedom, the reincarnation of cause and effect, and the rebellion of adolescence, At the same time as psychotherapy, what the film really wants to express is the fact that certain "human nature is evil", whether it is laissez-faire "Alex" doctrine, or the minister's so-called "centralized" absolute therapy, The fundamental reason is that the two extreme ways of dealing with the evil of human nature are unreasonable. As for what should be, we need to neutralize both and think more.

In terms of performance techniques, the film is very bold, with various sexually suggestive props. The four rascals wear white clothes that symbolize purity. The elegant Beethoven and the William Tell Overture are played with the contrast of dirty things. The stage play In general scenes, the audiovisual language is very rich.

A Clockwork Orange quotes

  • [Alex has just struck Dim on the legs]

    Dim: What did you do that for?

    Alex: For being a bastard with no manners, and not a dook of an idea how to comport yourself public-wise, O my brother.

    Dim: I don't like you should do what you done, and I'm not your brother no more and wouldn't want to be.

    Alex: Watch that. Do watch that, O Dim, if to continue to be on live thou dost wish.

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

    Alex: A nozh scrap any time you say.

    Dim: Doobidoob. A bit tired, maybe. Best not to say more. Bedways is rightways now, so best we go homeways and get a bit of spatchka. Right, right?

  • [listening to Beethoven's Ninth Symphony]

    Alex: Oh bliss! Bliss and heaven! Oh, it was gorgeousness and gorgeousity made flesh. It was like a bird of rarest-spun heaven metal or like silvery wine flowing in a spaceship, gravity all nonsense now. As I slooshied, I knew such lovely pictures!
