About

Sex, shock, and ultraviolence: with his mega-controversial adaptation of Anthony Burgess’s cult novel, Stanley Kubrick unleashed this indelibly startling vision of the future. In a pop-art-stylized dystopian London, sadistic thug Alex DeLarge (Malcolm McDowell) and his band of hooligans terrorize the streets—until cruel irony makes Alex a pawn in a much larger game of social and political control. A defining statement for the director on the tension between free will and institutional authority, and one of the most provocative films ever made about the nature of violence, A Clockwork Orange stands as a work of totemic significance: visually brilliant, frighteningly funny, and fearless in its vast philosophical and moral implications.
