Someone pointed this out in another video I watched years ago; there’s a shot of soldiers breaking into a house is basically what Alex & his Droogs have done.
The music in concert with the historical imagery is so powerful. This scene gets stuck in my head often. So does Dr, Strangelove’s “stay on the bomb run” scene. Master filmmaking.
Would it be too cruel to say that Alex deserved everything that happened to him after this? I mean as a victim of SA myself, it was pretty cathartic to see the character go through Hell, just as he did to others. You've got to admit he had this coming.
Hes not really the type of character you empathise with but rather someone you see for what they really are: a child, and theres nothing more cruel and unfeeling than a child
No, the film has a villain as the main character. Not an antihero, not a flawed person, he doesn’t have a tragic story, his actions don’t fall in some gray area of morality. He’s a rotten, malicious, vile, irredeemable, and downright terrible person.
I haven’t seen the movie in it’s entirety since I was 19 (2014) By the end of the clip I thought, “My God! That’s an amazing movie, I wanna watch it again.” lol:3
It oddly made me smile. It is odd that I begin to find disturbing things more... comforting. It is odd that at peace I begin to generate stress. I must be mentally disturbed or something.
I've often wondered why it's so hard to find the original cinematic cuts of the soundtrack. Like after all this time I still have to watch the movie to appreciate the original score.
Try looking up music from A CLOCKWORK ORANGE performed by Walter Carlos not Wendy Carlos. Walter transitioned to a woman and took the name Wendy. I’m pretty sure this music was performed for the film earlier by Walter Carlos as my old album cover indicates. I think the soundtrack was also produced by Warner Bros. Good luck! -Tim
The first time I saw that scene I cried about it when I drank some Pennsylvania Dutch and got slightly drunk and yelled at my grandma, saying "WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO?! SEND ME TO CONVERSION THERAPY?! i don't want to go to conversion therapy..."
Fyi, It's not an innuendo for giving Pennsylvanian-Dutch farmers blowies, it's a booze name Edit: wouldn't mind helping my fellow man... wink wink, nudge nudge
Damn i remember when this vid had like only 4 comments lol, also this scene is such a "horrorshow" and yet disturbing, it stills give me chills around my whole body.
@@NateCraven318 No. That is still not right and an approach that brings a result of no value. That pastor was right. And not only from theological point of view. Creating a form of zombie is not a sensible payback.
"Can't be helped. Here's the punishment element perhaps." Oddly, one of the most humanitarian moments of the film. The glance the female doctor gives to her colleague speaks volumes, as if they recognise an unintended, unfortunate consequence of what they're doing.
I still love the theory that this therapy / technique is just a big scam and Alex is in on it. Hence why he’s asking all the questions pretending he doesn’t know what is going on.
For the longest time I assumed Alex was saying "Horror show" as if he naturally associated horror with something good. Then I learned about the word Kharasho.

I never understood why he had to be restrained with his eyelids forced open. Wouldn't it be simpler just to say "You have to fully cooperate by watching the videos or else the deal is off and you go back to prison?"
Because his inner nature was rebelling against the therapy. As his mind rebelled, so did his body. Imagine the thing that you hate being forcibly impressed upon your mind. Wouldn't you be trying to physically withdraw from the therapy too?
@@pixlbit-designs-vfx Yes, thank you - you seem to have nailed it. Asking Alex to voluntarily absorb the treatment would be like asking someone to hold their own breath until they pass out; or perhaps remain perfectly still when being tickled.

@@themidnighttavern6784this is completely a myth, the man was a perfectionist introvert who micromanaged actors. Because of this, crew members and actors have made up stuff about him because they didn’t like how he directed and his general “vibe.” All of the stuff out of the shining is genuinely made up and is basically urban legend at this point. Funny thing is with McDowells eyes being scratched, Kubrick made him take time out for them to heal, probably cause it’d be a union nightmare to bring someone in who’s pretty much injured.
The first time I watched this movie I got scared, but I understood a lot of Simpsons references and by the 9th or 100 times I have watched it, it goes beyond the masterpiece and the book is at the same level.
sooo many people not even realizing this is real and scientists have used methods similar to what kubrick portrays to try to understand life and the universe as well as how it works
After watching after all these years, I really do believe Alex meant thats its wrong. Not that he was remorseful of his action but that he genuinely knew right from wrong and that music was one of the only rights he connected with. Still an amazing scene.
When you listen to Ode to Joy by Beethoven, do you think of the Nakatomi vault opening in Die Hard, when I hear Ode to Joy by Beethoven, I think of this scene, we are not the same
OMG YOU MUST BE FUN AT PARTIES! Alex is at least classy enough to kill an old lady with a massive ceramic penis (kinda on accident I think), whilst Igor and his droogies were a little less crafty and visited mass torture upon their victims.
I wonder if the last story of Tales from the Hood got this scene from when they did the experiment on Crazy K and saw all the violence that was done in his community that was compared to lunching in the past
Kubrick? Burgess was always the s##t . If more people read him , they would know that. A good middle ground would be Tom Hollander's narration of the book. Oh its Gorgeousness and Gorgeosity combined. After seeing the film several times and reading the book twice ,its now my favorite approach to the novel. I think Kubricks film was both a blessing and a curse for Burgess. It Was pretty slimey the way Kubrick didn't address the bashing Burgess was taking over his film at the time. Quite weasely.

Granted that movie Alex isn’t as bad as book Alex he is still a monster though. However, what they are doing to him is still wrong. Taking away somebody’s ability to choose pretty much Robbs them of what it means to be human and that is a fate I wouldn’t wish on my worst enemy no matter what they did to me.
Come to think of it, the only positive thing about the criminally violent Alex, was his love for Beethoven's music. It was so cruelly inappropriate to make him feel sick to hear it. Besides, if they had to have music to accompany the nazi war propaganda film, playing Wagner should be the logical choice.
Reminder that in the book this worked and Alex became a normal, well adjusted person but because Kubrick is, to be a bit hyperbolic for effect, allergic to endings that are not as miserable as possible, he chose not to have this happen. THe fact is as sometimes people need to be taught somethings are bad weather they want to or not
I'm sorry, but in the book this doesn't work at all. They end up manipulating his brain in order to undo what they had done. In the very last chapter, however, he decides to leave the droogy lifestyle in order to settle down. It is this chapter, which deals with the consequences of maturity, that Kubrick decided to leave out.
That ending is too Disney like. You don’t simply grow out of being ignoble and savage. It’s still there inside of you. A bit pessimistic, sure, but it paints us in a light that is true and honest. Kubrick wasn’t keen on Rousseau’s thesis on man being good and civil.
@@carltanner7461i heard that a few people, maybe even the author himself, was forced to write the last chapter as an addon, to escape any negative feedback from the public at large.

If I was in Alexs' situation and they played clips of the Germans in WWII times......I'd be like, that was awesome. Beethoven the Austro-German composer is Boss too. Not to mention Hugo Boss, who designed the uniforms. It all seems so right and perfect. The highpoint of Western Civilization. As Sun Tzu would say.... they knew who they were and were able to identify their enemies. This would have been inspirational for me.
@@PolishGod1234 I liked a lot of longer media, but Lotr my man... it's just so boring for me, there's no mistery, there's no twist, it's dragged out... it looks like an ad placement movie to show you all the cool places in Mordor to pass an holiday.

That's just what i remember on the spot. I don't know man, tell me what you like about it
This is just an interpretation I came up watching this last, but the ending in particular is a great analogy for homosexuality at the time. they take, in the name of his greater good, his passion and love - one of the few things not connected to his psychotic violence, his love for music and ludwig van's 9th. Just like a gay person with their genuine, romantic feelings being "converted", they take the best, most innocent and noble parts of ourselves and turn them against us. As someone who too sees Beethoven's 9th as the best piece of music ever written, the idea of having it twisted into something you find sickening and revolting is horrific.
*Breaking the Battle Mode Seal* “Look out! This guy has only one gear, battle mode and hard life. Most people shift and have information and engineering as a complete gear set.” -Anonymous Comic Book Once a person shifts into battle gear there is only one outcome and either way, anyone who breaks that seal is going to pay for it. Dead human bees, man. Still buzzing around. You can’t shift out of battle mode once you break that seal. You just buzz around until you die from it. When a person can’t adapt back into civilization after a war they call it the crazy life, I think. Men often get lured into a life of abuse and violence. They are simply fools exploited by the world played for their masculinity and egoism. Civilization does not understand you.
That unsettling version of Ode to Joy set to clips of the Nazis marching is so amazing.

Just like a gay person with their genuine, romantic feelings being "converted", they take the best, most innocent and noble parts of ourselves and turn them against us.
As someone who too sees Beethoven's 9th as the best piece of music ever written, the idea of having it twisted into something you find sickening and revolting is horrific.
Don't you know? That's why you don't see Joker 2 movie. #JokerFolieADeux

*Breaking the Battle Mode Seal*
“Look out! This guy has only one gear, battle mode and hard life. Most people shift and have information and engineering as a complete gear set.” -Anonymous Comic Book
Once a person shifts into battle gear there is only one outcome and either way, anyone who breaks that seal is going to pay for it.
Dead human bees, man. Still buzzing around. You can’t shift out of battle mode once you break that seal. You just buzz around until you die from it. When a person can’t adapt back into civilization after a war they call it the crazy life, I think. Men often get lured into a life of abuse and violence. They are simply fools exploited by the world played for their masculinity and egoism. Civilization does not understand you.
