A film full of "violence" throughout, violence is everywhere, in beatings, in sex, in prison, in hospital, in laughter, in eyes, even where there is light and shadow. There will be "violence", "kindness" is a choice, and "violence" seems to be an instinct, an "original sin". "Violence" cannot be erased, perhaps behavior can be restrained, but it will exist in new ways. After Alex was taken to prison, his violence stopped, followed by violence against him by other prisoners and guards, in the hospital, by doctors and society, and after recovering from the hospital, his violent thoughts It also stopped, and the follow-up was the violence against him by the parent society. Violence doesn't disappear, it just exists in a different way. The film presents a world in which the disorder is almost absurd and insane. The role of the police who represent the order is also minimal, only serving the political party. The people there have become a little exaggerated, a little crazy, a little hysterical, and even, When I saw those "cool" victims, I felt that they were a little out of tune with this world. Of course, in one night, their "coolness" was broken and ceased to exist, and eventually they began to go crazy, Especially the old writer, who locked the male protagonist and played the music in the back, that expression was so simple. And "crazy" people, it seems that what they do and what they encounter is reasonable. Even, neither the behavior of Alex in front nor what happened to him in the back can make me feel "cruel", or it can be said that I can't "empathize". Perhaps, these are the tragedies of that era. The shooting of the film is also very distinctive. The whole film is full of a lot of direct and indirect sexual innuendos, whether it is the "milk bar", the graffiti on the wall, the porcelain penis, and even the characters' costumes. There are also two corresponding acceleration and deceleration clips, the part of violent rape and taking the girl home, repeatedly putting on and taking off clothes, which is quite interesting 2333. In the film, there is also a very important character, music. In Kubrick's film, the music seems to have the feeling of "declaring the army to seize the master". Strong, but, personal feeling, too strong. Finally, I have to say that Kubrick is really a pioneer. In the 1970s, he was able to put out such an advanced film. Looking at it today, it will not look dull, and the rhythm of the film is also very good. Great.
