ACO is very prophetic. An increasingly right wing neo f*sc*st government needs to repress intellectuals and critics with a uniformed force of the worst kind of thugs, jokingly called a "police force". Anthony Burgess wrote the novel about such a dystopia future. He was attacked by a gang in real life, and he was angry at the police not coming to his aid. But later he thought about such uniformed thugs being useful to the state, especially in the light of the German experience of the eps and 40s. A Clockwork Orange 🍊 was born.

Dim and the other did the bad things too. I think we feel sorry for Alex because it's unfair. They're as guilty as Alex.

[@dancegod1691]

I didn't feel sorry at all for the character. The whole second half of the film was quite satisfying to watch honestly. But I did feel bad for the actor who about drowned while they were filming this.

[@panoskatrin4910]

@@dancegod1691 then I guess the film didnt even make you think,this is what films do,make you think!Alex in the second half of the film is a broken man a man who has been tortured and humiliated becouse of prison,when he returns to the society everyone continues to torture him without any compassion for he has been through(brainwashed,beaten,mentally tortured,being humiliated,losing the love of his family and so on....)if alex was horrible at the first half then the people around him at the second half are being even more cruel,I think a nice scene was the part of when he returns to the house of the writer when at first the writer sympathise with him for being tortured yet later he too becomes a monster because of anger and revenge, the story of alex in the second part of the movie is the story of every released prisoner who struggles in the society to live after his freed and in the end just like alex in the film he returns in his past self,revenge,anger and cruelty is what our society offers to these broken men and this is what they will become,surely justice is not revenge yet just like many other things justice is a concept created by humans who have showed many times that they can be the worst monsters (of course the movie covers other concepts as well like power,choice,how the governments uses people and being human, but revenge and justice is also one of the main themes in the movie)

[@adamforbes1019]

@@panoskatrin4910 But that logic, no punishment should exist. Not for rape, not for hate crimes, nothing. Technically there is a scientific cause for every behavior or action; does that excuse the behavior? And treating a sociopath well won't make him grateful, or make him act less bad; it will just educate him to the fact that certain people are easier to take advantage of. What about his victims? They will never return to life. Should he be treated with dignity, respect and given freedom even though his victims will never have the opportunity to live their lives to their full?

[@kirrithkovacs5097]

I always through this was the lesson of the book. Aggression not only results in violence, removing Alex's ability to function with aggression, has left him a victim unable to justifiably defend himself.

[@Cash27373]

the ending to this is kinda a lesson too with all of the horrible characters throughout the book having good endings while the other people the droogs attacked have bad ending with the old guy presumably taken to prison and all this homeless people still remaining homeless and probely were beaten up by alex and his new droogs after he got his ultra violence back

[@watchoutforsnak3s]

For a film with many memorable scenes, this one always stood out to me. The quick zoom to Alex's face as the "dread theme" starts playing as he realizes it's Dim and Georgie freaks me out every time I see it. What a twist. It's good ironic commentary on the police in general too.

Alex was the only one who really stepped out of the shadows to engage the hobo, and he precipitated the beating. Also even if he does recognize the others, they're wearing badges now. Best to call it even and keep quiet unless he wants another beat down from them.

[@Shanethefilmmaker]

Here's a mindfuck. They were that close to helping Alex out had they not recognize him. Granted both novel and movie imply Alex isn't the first person they beat on, but Dim actually did seem concerned about the guy before he realized who it was. Had he not been filled with revenge, even by the standards of that timeline, Dim would probably make a decent cop.

[@tmrezzek5728]

When Malcolm McDowell is first shoved into the trough, it's done with no breathing apparatus. Then there's a cut to a slightly different angle, and this time when the camera rolled McDowell is breathing through an air device under the water. But the scene is so intense (with the sound effects and the score and terrific acting) you really do think Alex is nearly drowned at the end.

1. Malcolm no doubt misses that head of hair he had, back in the day. 2. Note the light source (setting sun) in the background, when they were walking down the path. Kubrick loved using a light source in the background, in all of his films. (Recall all the panel instrument lights in the background, on the B-52 scenes during "Dr. Strangelove.")
