Review of A Clockwork Orange (1971) by Josh Larsen for LarsenOnFilm — 13 Mar 2015
A Clockwork Orange ultimately asks: how deep is sin’s hold—on Alex, and on us? This being a Kubrick film—and considering that it leaves us with Beethoven’s Ninth triumphantly, transgressively ringing once more in Alex’s ears, after a fall from a window knocks the Ludovico out of him—the movie doesn’t seem to think humanity is worthy of an answer.
To A Clockwork Orange, we’re all droogs at heart.
