  • Next Night Alex And His Friends
    1,036 words
    Many of us like to think that humanity as a whole is progressing to a better future where we will live united and in peace with one another, a time of a more enlightened society.

  • Crimes Alex And His Social Group
    1,268 words
    Analysis of Clockwork Orange The film, "A Clockwork Orange", is, to me, an almost exact replica of today's society. Basically, one kid, who seems to have come from a financially sound home and community, goes through about three stages -- 1. He violates the laws society has set forth to maintain order. 2. He is caught and punished for his crimes against society. 3. He feels remorse for his violence and sexually deviance (although, at the end of the film, he's back to his old, delinquent self). T...

Being that I live in America and I don't often have the chance to hit up big time film festivals around the country, it took me a bit of time before I managed to catch it. Was it worth the wait? I think so. In fact, I think that in terms of the technical side of film, Irreversible is one of the best films I've seen in the past two years or more. The camera is unbelievable here -- it matches very well the emotions experienced by...

    A Clockwork Orange stands as a great literary work, yet most copies weigh in at less than three hundred pages.

The first person story is told by Alex, a youth but of fifteen that spends his nights with his friends, or "droogs', terrorizing the public with their bits of "ultraviolence', and engaging in the old "in-out in-out'. He is a contradiction of characteristics, as he sips milk (moloko) laced ...
