A Clockwork Orange: Simply Brilliant!
A Clockwork Orange is one of the finest films of all time, a masterpiece in directing and screenwriting. There are some who think that it is upsetting and offensive, but what these people fail to understand is that the film is about a criminal, and criminals do some pretty awful things. Just because Kubrick was brazen enough to show us these shocking images doesn't mean that he condones them. Some people have been so brainwashed by what their peers and parents view as "acceptable" that they simply refuse to allow themselves to enjoy anything that is controversial or outrageous. My Catholic mother raised me to be open minded and to enjoy all forms of art, and it was she who first introduced me to A Clockwork Orange, her favorite movie and mine. Watch it, and refuse to allow what others have misled you to believe sour your experience. Clockwork rules!
