Highly recommended, not recommended

Disgusted and forced myself to read the beginning - Alex and his accomplices beat the homeless', fought with rapists, abused their parents, abused their teachers, gang-raped the writer's wife and abolished the writer, went to the old woman's house to do evil Caught by betrayal... After watching these evils, I dare to feel sick and nauseated.
Look at the back: Alex was transformed, performed "kindness" in front of everyone, was driven away by his parents' new son, was beaten by a homeless man, and was beaten in the water by his former subordinate - the police after "being a man again" when I shudder! ! Especially the part where he was once pressed into the water, the whole process was matched with the background music - a crazy music with psychedelic colors, guilt, despair, weirdness and shocking! ! Images, music and what's happening to Alex create a time and space that's absurd, crazy, terrifying, shocking, and maddening! ! ! I read this piece through gritted teeth. . .
Later, on a stormy night, Alex went to his enemy - the writer's "home". I feel very conflicted here - on the one hand I have a frowning, wide-eyed sneer, on the other hand I am worried about Alex's fate. The writer here, too, is a distorted — a pathetic figure distorted by vengeance and politics. Here comes a moment that makes me both disgusted and shuddered - Alex jumping from an upstairs after being frantically tortured in one of his favorite Beethoven symphonies. . .
After Alex's recovery and dealings with politicians, is it a "big reunion"? the ending.
There have been a lot of thoughts and reflections, and everyone has different feelings and directions. I just want to share my feelings. I recommended it to my roommate to watch it. After watching it, he said what kind of thing this is... The movie is very-indescribable. People who think a lot won't look good, and normal audiences don't like it, or dislike it. So I recommend movies, but not watching movies.

A Clockwork Orange quotes

  • Frank Alexander: [hears knocking on the door] Who on Earth could that be?

    Julian: I'll see who it is.

    [goes to the front door]

    Julian: Yes, what is it?

    Alex: [barely audible] Help... please... help... help.

    Julian: [opens the door and Alex collapses at the doorway. He carries Alex into the house] Frank, I think this young man needs some help.

    Frank Alexander: [surprised by Alex's poor condition] My God! What happened to you, my boy?

    Alex: [voice-over] And would you believe it, o my brothers and only friends. There was your faithful narrator being held helpless, like a babe in arms, and suddenly realizing where he was and why home on the gate had looked so familiar, but I knew I was safe. For in those care-free days, I and my so-called droogies wore our maskies, which were like real horror-show disguises.

    Alex: [nervous] Police... ghastly horrible police... they beat me up, sir.

    [sees Frank has a foul look on his face, apparently not believing him]

    Alex: The police beat me up, sir.

    Frank Alexander: [excited] I know you!

    [pauses]

    Frank Alexander: Isn't it your picture in the newspapers? Didn't I see you on the video this morning? Are you not the poor victim of this horrible new technique?

    Alex: [relieved] Yes, sir! That's exactly who I am and what I am, sir. A victim, sir!

    Frank Alexander: Then, by God, you've been sent here by providence! Tortured in prison, then thrown out to be tortured by the police. My heart goes out to you, poor, poor boy. Oh, you are not the first to come here in distress. The police are fond of bringing their victims to the outskirts of this village. But it is providential that you, who are also another kind of victim should come here.

    Frank Alexander: [finally remembering Alex's state] Oh, but you're cold and shivering. Julian, draw a bath for this young man.

    Julian: Certainly, Frank.

    Alex: [as he is being carried off by Julian] Thank you very much, sir. God bless you, sir.

  • Alex: Hey dad, there's a strange fella sittin' on the sofa munchy-wunching lomticks of toast.

    Dad: That's Joe. He lives here now. The lodger, that's what he is. He rents your room.
