This was a great scene. Lot's of changing emotions at once for Alex. First, smugness. Then angry retaliation. Then fear and panic. Then finally back to his normal baseline. It was even better in the book.
The book left almost no impression on me except for NADSAT being linguistically interesting. I was more taken with another story by Burgess, about a guy who kills his wife.

Every single scene in this entire masterpiece of a film is perfect, arresting, entertaining, and well-made. This is easily one of the greatest films in all of cinema history.
some scenes are extremely awkward and poorly produced. like the singing in the rain scene and the water trough scene and the alex beating his droogs scene. theyre all pretty cringy
Nah, it is just intimidation. Get into someone's personal space, make them uncomfortable. There can be a sense of sexual dominance involved but it not a 'lust' thing. Just think what happens in prisons! It is a power thing.
"You are now a murderer little Alex, a murderer" in a movie with lots of memorable scenes and quotes the glee in which that line is delivered has always stuck with me
Notice how politely they speak to each other "sir" "brother" "gentlemen," and in complete sentences. Even in brutality and death the British mind their manners.
The smile he gives to the principal when he spits on him pretty much says it all about their relationship. Alex used him just as much as the principal used him. Then the cycle repeats at the end of the movie.
I don't know. I think it was all a bit gay - look 0:40, pure sex. You get a few men in a dirty brick room with the faint von of cal and they all want to go at it.
1:58 is anyone gonna talk about this dynamic brilliant shot by Kubrick? It really begins to give you not just a sense of ‘being’ Alex but also this sense of claustrophobia and intensity of being in that position like if you were in it yourself. It takes a genius be ahead on that and pull it off cleverly. Damn.
It's a very interesting short scene, laden with imagery and meaning, viz: 1.Police officers and Alex. One sitting like Michaelangelo's bored cherub. Alex's crotch in foreground. 2.Fed up handsome police interrogator chewing gum, wondering what to try next. 3. Intimidatory posture of handsome police interrogator right next to Alex, smiling. Alex smiling back. Sneering contempt from both men. 4. Violence from interrogator. Alex retaliates. Violence by second officer. 5. Outside office policeman supping tea. English 'civilised' life goes on as normal. Fawning welcome to Mr Deltoid who affects a more 'upper class educated' accent to impress the officers. 6.Alex on floor covered in his own blood on white clothes. Christ on cross? Homoerotic image. Alex's crotch in foreground again. 7. Three police officers and Mr Deltoid standing over Alex, sneering at him. 8. Deltoid kneels down, sneering and smiling. Homosexual vibe. Handsome police officer snuggles next to Mr Deltoid to sneer at Alex. More gay vibe. 9. Deltoid spits at Alex. Alex smiles, knowingly.
"It's no good sitting there in hope, my little brothers, I won't say one single solitary слово unless I have my lawyer here. I know the law, you bastards."
Knowing what a perfectionist S. Kubrick was I wonder how many times McDowell had to get spat on until Kubrick felt he had just the right shot. It is rumored that Kubrick died 865 times until he felt the doctors performance was believable.
Most British actors get their start in the stage theatre and generally a lot of the older plays like Shakespeare's have the roles breaking the fourth wall, hence Aubrey Morris being from the Old Vic had no problems mugging the camera
I love that pop sound that was used for when Alex gets clocked by the 2nd cop. Leaves you feeling really satisfied that he connected a solid one right on his chin
i love how he just smiles at the other officers for a second at 1:20 acting as if he is doing nothing wrong while trying to crush a mans testicles...best movie ever
Love the camera angles. Also, the older man that Alex is afraid of in other scenes. He's great. While disturbing the movie has a campy quality to it. The Alex character is done so well by Malcolm McDowell. He was so cute in his younger days, too. I wasn't allowed to see this movie when it came out by my mother. Not that I would ever have seen it then, lol. I was too young. That and the Exorcist so you know which movies I couldn't wait to see later on. I think she was right about both although both were great, but definitely not for kids.
I bet cops all over the world , both still on the job and retired, recognize that look the seated detective is giving Alex in the beginning of the scene.
It's hard to believe Malcolm McDowell went all the way from a killer in a clockwork Orange to playing the good Doctor Loomis in Rob zombie's Halloween films.
Another funny part that no one caught: The blood on the wall and floor wasn't there at first, Alex most likely added that so the ones walking in the room would feel bad for him.
Scale is the most pivotal aspect in the sequence - the notion of these ‘superiors’ towering above a beaten Alex conveys his insecure persona in his act of resilience
The symbol of Mr Deltoid's spit is incredible. After he tried to sexually assault Alex in the bedroom scene, the spit symbolises both his 'climax' of seeing his prediction of Alex's fall come true, and of saying "I'm done with you. You were only ever a pawn, a tool to be used". Striking.

Geovanny Gonzalez I left this comment 5 years ago, I’ve since read the book a few times, and you’re totally right. I’ve done some research and sexual abuse is pretty heavily suggested in the movie, though, which is pretty interesting imo.
The cop who grabs Alex's nose is actor Steven Berkoff, who would go on to play the villain in "Octopussy" and "Beverly Hills Cop," as well as Adolf Hitler in the "War and Remembrance" tv miniseries.
jutubaeh Why lol for? The 1984 Act & 1986 Crown Prosecution Act were designed to regulate brutality like this, because this happened for real before 1 1984 & 1986.
Friedrich Schopenhauer yes it’s supposed to take place after both times but it was actually filmed in 1971 but no one actually knew what the future would be like
Yep same here, I only realize it when watching an episode of The Avengers (John Steed) and he basically looked the same without the sideburns and the credits said "Steven Berkoff" basically when he still had a full set of hair his forehead mold was less pronounced since people seem to be inherently less trained on minor details of the forehead and more on the hair,
Respectfully, yes, however: 1) The novel itself was partly inspired by a journalist colleague with Marxist views, 2) Yes, the tone of the dystopian work is satirical, lampooning behaviour modification policy, 3) Though there are views on the extent of the art in the novel, including the author, post modernist theory indicates that the novel is an artistic work. (Some sources for this is Wikipedia).
was about to say the same thing.... but to me i don't think they look alike maybe somewhat similar but enough to know it isn't the same or to even get them mixed up if you'd have saw both of them side by side.
man..that loogey to the face..cinematically was awesome and had so much more meaning than any punch to the face or gut would do...I think it gave new meaning to "demoralizing someone"...this movie frikn rules...Kubricks best work here and The Shining...
I think the most disturbing thing about this scene was the fact that the detective or whatever was so happy that the woman died, so that they could punish him as a murderer.......
He wasn’t happy. He was blind with cold fury. His laughing was a reaction to the utter contempt and hate he feels inside him for Alex. And I think he was his teacher.
John Doe especially since he ratted his accomplices out. At least maybe a reduced sentence, makes send to try and put 3 behinds bars instead of only one.
@@JohnDoe-gk7ok 14 years was his sentence. I understand that's the standard time for accidental homicide in the UK (I might be wrong and I'm any case this dystopian version of the UK might have different laws). Alex spent two years of his sentence in jail and had the rest of it commuted when he received the Ludovico treatment.
"You are now a murderer little Alex. A murderer." One of the best lines in the movie.
This is the end of the line for me. The end of the line yes

+UsagiChan if he's got any yarbles
@@CountChrisdo You eunuch jelly thou!
kinda looks like evan peters in this scene
Other way around. Evan looks like him.
No.
Two elements of the film that make it especially entertaining: the music and the argot.
Ah, my favorite scene in the movie, because it has Alex getting hurt.
Clockwork orange is an incredible film
Indeed
That tray of cakes the Sargent is eating looks yummy! What I would give for an afternoon English Tea right now!
He was smoking a joint in the bathroom beforehand!
£15
Young Malcom McDowell is so hot!
Don’t mind me. I’m looking at young Steven Berkoff.
MICHAEL
This may be the most British film ever made
Directed by a guy from the Bronx.
At certain angles he really looks like Evan Peters!
this film is a triumph of cinema
Greatest Acting by Berkoff !
So Heath Ledger was inspired by Alex in this movie when he acted as the joker... :3 just thought y'all would like to know that :3
2:56 XD That face!
hahahahahaha xd
Steven Berkoff was a great actor despite dubious appearances in Ocotpussy and Rambo II , lol
He's still alive 😉
It was great fun to watch this movie in the 70's.
In 1971 this sort of thing happened in police stations for real, long before the PACE Act 1984.
I'm quite sure this takes place after both times.
It still happens in america
jutubaeh Why lol for? The 1984 Act & 1986 Crown Prosecution Act were designed to regulate brutality like this, because this happened for real before 1
1984 & 1986.
Friedrich Schopenhauer yes it’s supposed to take place after both times but it was actually filmed in 1971 but no one actually knew what the future would be like
only those who deserved it
0:38 I never would've guessed that that's the same actor who played Victor Maitland in Beverly Hills Cop.
Yep same here, I only realize it when watching an episode of The Avengers (John Steed) and he basically looked the same without the sideburns and the credits said "Steven Berkoff" basically when he still had a full set of hair his forehead mold was less pronounced since people seem to be inherently less trained on minor details of the forehead and more on the hair,
I hope everyone knows that Anthony Burgess was a staunch conservative lampooning permissive political policy.
Respectfully, yes, however:
1) The novel itself was partly inspired by a journalist colleague with Marxist views,
2) Yes, the tone of the dystopian work is satirical, lampooning behaviour modification policy,
3) Though there are views on the extent of the art in the novel, including the author, post modernist theory indicates that the novel is an artistic work.
(Some sources for this is Wikipedia).
Really good camera work and dialogue here. Helps emphasize Kubrick's intentions right.
When malcom McDowell was young he was so handsome like my dream man right there
Great 2D pic👍 M O O N C H I L D huh... a King Crimson reference perhaps?
The aggressive cop portrayed Victor Maitland in "Beverly Hills Cop"
0:02 why does he kinda look like Robert Pattinson tho🤔
@jeffsdolphin The actor who played Deltoid ran out of spittle, so Steven Berkoff eagerly jumped in and started gobbing on Malcolm.
I love Alex's smile, looks alot like Evan Peters O_o
+Roxanna RZ thinking the same !
+Roxanna RZ thinking the same !
was about to say the same thing.... but to me i don't think they look alike maybe somewhat similar but enough to know it isn't the same or to even get them mixed up if you'd have saw both of them side by side.
Malcolm McDowell is such a badass.
Alex is truly Evil but almost nobody in this film comes off like a particularly good person. The priest and one or two others.
The only two good people I can think of were the priest and The writer's wife
Before Quicksilver met Charles Xavier and the other mutants..
Kathi Ma strange of he looks like him and how good he acts like him in season 6
Evan Peters looks like him so much 0:47
hahaha Yehaaa
OMG..!! isss fucking TRUE
I thought the same thing!
Not just there.
Şeyda Ledger I knew someone had to say it lol
When he wiped the spit from his face, and threw the tissue away,, then smiled, that was joker style
0:39 Am I the only one who thinks the cop in the blue shirt looks even more dodgy than Alex?
Bit like Hannibal Lecter in silence of the lambs
Well you know what they say about cops and criminals...
🙌 oui, accusé.
man..that loogey to the face..cinematically was awesome and had so much more meaning than any punch to the face or gut would do...I think it gave new meaning to "demoralizing someone"...this movie frikn rules...Kubricks best work here and The Shining...
A loogey is throat mucus.
I love the way Deltoid has a wonky eye.
Kubrick for all his talents was also such a master of casting
The typewriter noises date this a little.
I think the most disturbing thing about this scene was the fact that the detective or whatever was so happy that the woman died, so that they could punish him as a murderer.......
He wasn’t happy. He was blind with cold fury. His laughing was a reaction to the utter contempt and hate he feels inside him for Alex. And I think he was his teacher.
@@mosspally6995 He's his father
"violence makes violence" AND PUNISHMENT MAKES PUNISHMENT
"They forced me to do it!" LOL, under today's legal system, Alex probably would've been acquitted
John Doe especially since he ratted his accomplices out. At least maybe a reduced sentence, makes send to try and put 3 behinds bars instead of only one.
@@ashkechum101 14 years for murder and theft IS a reduced sentence.
@@Vesnicie no in most circumstances thats pretty normal
@@Vesnicie Was 14 years his sentence, or just what he served before they applied that mind control experiment?
@@JohnDoe-gk7ok 14 years was his sentence. I understand that's the standard time for accidental homicide in the UK (I might be wrong and I'm any case this dystopian version of the UK might have different laws). Alex spent two years of his sentence in jail and had the rest of it commuted when he received the Ludovico treatment.
0:39 so COL. Podovsky dealt with Alex DeLarge before dealing with John Rambo.
who the fuck is evan peters
An actor from An American Horror Story television series. He's pretty good
No good sitting there in hope, my little brothers
1:26 look at the cakes selection he's got there 😃😃
That's definitely Colonel PODOVSKY from Rambo II
When you think about it, he would have been a great cast for Luke Skywalker
