clockwork orange
so it’s an old one, but those that have seen it know it’s the shit. Kubrick is awesome. he describes fundamental values through epic tales and dazzling visuals. relationships, war, nuclear weapons, and, in this one, violence have all been touched on. the characters have no feeling. the setting is disturbing. in fact everything is disturbing. the intensity throughout makes my skin crawl while at the same time being intoxicating.
it’s long and drawn out and at sometimes slow, but only when Kubrick wants it to be. it’s like a rollercoaster. the concept is deep and primal.
you know what. fuck it. just see it when you get the chance because you’ll be disturbed and probably end up loving it.
