The scale of "A Clockwork Orange" is very large, it is evil enough, but it is also close enough to the real humanity, because we cannot forget the shocking scenes and tragedies that have happened in history, the tragic history even surpasses the retelling of all images ! One thought to become a Buddha, one thought to become a Buddha, this refers to the dual nature of the human mind. Most literary and artistic works involve sex and violence. The audience consumes those hidden violence in a clever way. They are displayed in the struggle between "bad people" and "good people", attacks that punish evil and promote good, and those who do evil. The attacks all actually caused the same bloodshed. It's ironic that the evil Alex in the film says he's drawn to the violence and pornography of the biblical story, he's honest after all, because he's clearly aware that his joy lies in brutality and pornography. Saying that he has no interest in deception and preaching, an overly intelligent and overly evil Thaadism.
Society must control evil, because no one wants to suffer for no reason. But evil is divided into naked evil and evil dressed by Qiao Zhuang. When the homeless group seeks justice and when politicians treat people as pawns, the evil is equally terrifying. It is easy for people to ignore the disgust caused by the evil that is covered up. For example, the public ignores the brutality of the prisoners because of their personal interests, and the revenge of the bullied makes people feel refreshed. Alex's evil is the kind of "low-level evil" that everyone shouts and beats. This is a childish thing compared to the evil of politicians and righteous people. The greater evil will be surrounded by flowers and applause.
The image design of Alex's villainous group is infantile, absolutely self-centered, hedonistic without shame, and ignoring the pain of others. The "milk bar" is probably ironic about the baby's appetite, smoking and drinking, all of which are the desire to devour. Another group of rapists in the film, dressed in camouflage and presumably identifying as "evil bats," are on par with the Alex group. It seems that soldiers and giant babies are interchangeable, and Alex's friend has indeed transformed from villain to soldier. Both the incarnation of evil and the messenger of justice need brutal power, and the meaning of different labels is different, so there will be a distinction between bandits and military bandits in times of war.
The film hides an Oedipus complex in it, a veiled expression of what happened in the place "home", "happening at home". The writer's wife happens to be wearing red as well as Alex's mother, the other cat woman killed by the penis ceramic has red hair, and the "red woman raped and murdered" recurs. The hatred and attacks of Alex are all the old people, the old homeless and the old writers. The "nose" being beaten in prison and the death of the "snake" are all metaphors for castration. These stories can be superimposed and vaguely emerge. The emotional impulse of the Oedipus complex.
