top notch movie/poor dvd
This was the first movie of Kubrick's that I ever saw, only 10 years ago. It made a huge impact. And made me a fan of Kubrick. Wonderful movie (taken from Anthony Burgess' novel) about society, violence and its impact, and thr role of free will and freedom. It's a movie you have to watch many times to fully get everything it has to offer.As a dvd it is poor. There are no extras (I'm not counting the awards section). It does have the theatrical trailer, which was brilliantly done for this film. No documentary, and considering the fuss it stirred up in England and with Burgess, there is a lot that could have been covered. No behind the scenes. And no director's commentary. I hope to see a special edition come out one day that contains a bit more.
