This week I watched A Clockwork Orange at the union. This is one of my all time favorite films and one of Kubrick’s best. I love that the film, even though odd in nature follows a very straight forward three act structure. It is a wonderful narrative, showing that a man cannot be changed from what he truly is. Alex is a classic character who charming and incredible fun to watch even though Alex as a man would not be seen as a good person. Kubrick succeeds in this challenge of making a bad person a likable character and this has helped with the films cult following. I look forward to every scene in the film, and I especially enjoy the music whether it be Ludwig Van or Singing in the Rain. Genius.
