All People are NOT inherently good.
Blu-ray makes a big difference here. Darks are darker and brights are brighter (nice in any Kubrick film.) The movie's theme is unrecognized and unutilized talent. Alex is way off track. But the obvious scapegoats are taken from us. His parents are polite, calm, stable, even timid. Money is stuffed in a drawer. Girls are too easy for him. Leadership in the gang rock solid. He has no clear ambition other than to feel something real. There seems to Alex nothing to work for and nothing to acheive...no possibility of recognition or reward. Creative energy can edify or destroy.
