Wasn't it just amazing how all the symbols added up in the end (sexual references and beethoven) I mean purely amazing storyline.

The book is too confusing for me, all the code words and stuff. But the film is kind of freaky too, however i love them both. It's a brilliant story.

nice to know.

The crazy words are actually derived from Russian slang. The author wanted to say horrible things without actually saying them. It's symbolic.

And I prefer the book the movie is based off the original American publication of the book, which leaves off the last, redemptive, chapter. While I really love the movie, the full book is absolutely amazing.

Director: The amazing Stanley Kubrick
actors: Main character 'Alex': Malcolm McDowell
Genre: Violent, drama
It was made in the 70's. for more look at wikipedia (I'm too lazy to type)
Methonine
IMBD says it is a crime/drama/thriller and "In future Britain, charismatic delinquent Alex DeLarge is jailed and later volunteers for an experimental aversion therapy developed by the government in an effort to solve society's crime problem... but not all goes to plan" \

Basically, some olds get killed. I'm super simplifying it. I also sugest watching the movie while reading the book. The book is a little hard to understand. If you like A Clockwork Orange, you should also read Heart of Darkness. Apocalypse Now was loosely based on it.

To everyone in this forum... Let's have a movie night haha!

DO you have any pictures from halloween? That would be one awesome costume!

The book wins, with the 21st chapter. The movie is good, but since it leaves the ending out...it's just depressing.

I have only seen a little bit of the movie and I was like oh so thats what Conker was doing in Conkers Bad Fur day...
Devine8039
I have to read the book for AP Lit, Haven't started it yet. Gotta go do that :[
Samb
One of the best movies ever.
Major
I've seen the movie and read the book also. I think I prefer the book in some points. THere's more Nadsat in it XD
YellowyEyes
I haven't read the book yet, but the movie is one of my favorite films of all time.
SixBreaker
If you haven't read the book and only seen the movie then read the book. The movie comes up short to say the least.
Marvin Nash
One of my favourite movies ever. Kubrick is a genius and ACO is probably his masterpiece. The character of Alex DeLarge is one of the best of movies history, and all the scenarios made up by Kubrick are just amazing.

Kubrick was a genius, no doubt about it, and if you really want to start discovering his works, this is the start point...

KUBRICK FTW!!

Most of his movies are just a few of the best movies ever made. ACO is one along with FMJ and 2001.

Raffles
I've actually never seen the movie but the book is fantastic. My favorite novel ever.
hellomynameiskassie
Book Book Book.
YellowyEyes
I started reading the book recently, but I'm too much of a lazy fuck so I probably won't read much of it until I'm in school again. Pretty interesting so far. I like how it's written in Nadsat.
hellomynameiskassie
Yeah, the language and feel of the entire novel is terrific. The band DeVotchKa is named after the nadsat word for young girl.
panthersenior2010
never read the book.
saw the movie.
thought it was pretty amazing.
