man as a machine

Rating: 8/10 (19 December 2007)

The movie deals with the human mind, the pervert man, brutal, violent, atrocious but free and the 'good man', the man seen as a plant, as a manipulated object, without free will. The world may be violent and horrible but still, a world full of plain, smiling, good people would be worse. Man is both good and evil, thats the beauty of humanity, that's the thing that brings color to life. The movie mocks at the government, the supreme control organ that manipulates the human mind under the pretext of doing something good for the society. The use of music in the violent scenes is not comic, Kubrick deals with music just like David Lynch does. The music is dangerous because itţs an extension of the characterţs inner self.
