Review of A Clockwork Orange (1971) by Jesse T — 04 Nov 2016
A disturbing, cold, dystopian, futuristic film that also contains elements of dark comedy, A Clockwork Orange is a journey of a disturbed young man that pulls.
No punches on how he goes from a Joker-like psychopath to a Theon Greyjoy Reek-like character, to someone who is in between. Watching Malcolm.
McDowell as Alex DeLarge, one can see how his performance easily influenced characters like Heath Ledger's Joker or even Anthony Hopkins' portrayal of.
Hannibal Lecter years later. It also tackles the issue of mental health in a futuristic setting, which is an issue that has always had a dystopian spin on it. The film shows that even if something is for the greater good, it isn't necessarily ethical, even if it's done to someone as demented as Alex. A definite must see not only for Stanley Kubrick fans, but for fans of film in general.
