A Clockwork Orange – 4K Restoration

STANLEY KUBRICK’S CHILLING DYSTOPIAN TRAGICOMEDY, NEWLY RESTORED

Viddy well, little brothers and sisters. Viddy well…

Based on the novel of the same name, Kubrick’s film hews closely to its source, presenting a dystopian England of the near-future where slang-spouting, hallucinogen-spiked milk-drinking hooligans run amok. McDowell stars as Alex, one particularly nasty “malchick” who spends his nights in pursuit of violent kicks — quite literally. That is until a particularly horrible assault lands him jail where he undergoes a radical behavior modification program and is returned to society a “cured” man. A mesmerizing and — even some forty-plus years on — still chilling dose of future-shock, not to mention essential big screen viewing.
