A
Clockwork Orange
" Alex's adventures are a kind of psychological myth. Our subconscious finds release in Alex, just as it finds release in dreams. It resents Alex being stifled and repressed by authority, however much our conscious mind recognizes the necessity of doing this." Stanley Kubrick, 1971

Stanley Kubrick Stanley Kubrick, was born in New York, on Thursday July 26, 1928, and he was an American film writer, director, and producer, with a legendary standing as an idiosyncratic individual film-director. His early work was as a photojournalist for Life Magazine, until he broke into filmmaking with Fear and Desire (1953) and Killer's Kiss (1955). After his crime thriller The Killing (1956), film-critics began to take notice of his avant-garde rigid style, and his drab cynical outlook. Paths of Glory (1957) proved his reputation as a good filmmaker, involved in depicting the individual at the mercy of a hostile depressing world. He now has the reputation of making some of the twentieth century classics, as in Spartacus (1960), and in Lolita (1962). But it was the obscure Dr. Strangelove, or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb (1964), that was fervently hailed as the black-comedy vision of the atomic-age apocalypse. His 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968) and A Clockwork Orange (1971), both made in England, where Kubrick preferred to work, prompted intense critical controversy as being too avant-garde. But A Clockwork Orange has now become widely accepted as an erroneous landmark in modern cinema. So violent were the scenes that shared the grotesque adventures of a deranged young man, Alex - played by Malcolm McDowell, that Kubrick banned the film and it was only seen again after his recent death. Alex' principal interests were rape, ultra ultra-violence and Beethoven's 9th Symphony, which you can hear here. |
