Recently my husband and I have been on a total movie binge! Living without cable television has enriched our lives in many ways - we read more books, we talk more often, we actually select which movies we want to watch instead of watching whatever's on tv... it's great!!! (my husband doesn't think so - missing the premier league is no joke!!!)
So anyway, we watched Clockwork Orange lately. Very disturbing movie with graphic portrayal of crime, sex, rape, lobotomy, criminal urges, beethoven - you name it! Everything you would expect from a Stanley Kubrick movie... There is something about this subject that makes you want to keep it subliminal. A movie that makes you identify and sympathise with a criminal character who is everything you are taught to condemn - well, it shocks you so much it takes days to recover! You are left wondering if there is somewhere inside you that sort of a person, who would be beyond control, beyond restraint! A part of you even wants to be that person! And you thought you were normal??? Well, after such a movie, I just had to watch Allo Allo to bring the world back into perspective! :-)
