A movie which can change a life !!

Rating: 10/10 (5 November 2017)

Have you ever seen « Clockwork Orange »? If you have never seen this movie before I recommend you to do it as soon as possible. Inspired by Anthony Burgess's novel, this movie is a real gold mine. Realised by the famous director Stanley Kubrick and shot in England, "Clockwork Orange" is released in 1972, eleven years after the publication of the book.
The plot takes place in England, in a future world. More exactly in a town where the young people, by the violence, took power and manage everything by fear. The central figure, played by Malcolm McDowell, is a young man, Alex, who is radically inclined towards violence and sex. He commits the worst crimes with some friends but Alex is finally arrested. Two years after his arrest, Alex volunteers to participate in a whole new experience. From then on, he is tortured in the only purpose to disgust him of violence and prevent Alex from hurting again. Believing to have reached their goal, the investigators of the experiment release Alex who is, nevertheless, still deeply nasty. Alex, once released, considers himself as free to resume his life as before. Unfortunately (or not), he quickly realizes that violence makes him sick, gives him nausea and, above all, is everywhere. Indeed, wherever he looks, he sees some violence. He then realizes that if he wants to distance himself from the society, he should maybe live more "healthily".
Finally, without any known actors (in Europe), the screenplay of the movie is really original and surprising. It is a beautiful satire of our current society and a subtle warning to the young people nowadays. Everyone can find an interest in this movie, even if it is hard psychologically. Never boring, the leading actor manages to move the audience while he plays a devilish being. Eventually, I will never recommend you enough to watch this movie which, personally, changed my view of life.
