A Clockwork Orange (1971)

We’re ending our Summer of ’70s with one of the most controversial movies we’ve ever covered: A Clockwork Orange. Is this an artsy masterpiece or just shock for the sake of it?  Are we supposed to feel sorry for Alex DeLarge? Is Malcolm McDowell giving one of the greatest performances of all time?  One of us gives it a perfect 10 and another basically wants to delete it from his library.  Can you guess who is who?!?!  Grab your droogs, pour yourself a glass of milk and get ready for a bit of the old ultra-violence. We tackle all of this and more! •0:00:00 - Introductions •0:02:30 - Memories of first viewing •0:06:15  - Pertinent movie details  •0:09:30  -  Critical and fan reviews •0:15:00 - Scene by scene breakdown  •1:38:00 - Modern day ratings ————————————————————  LIVE PODCAST-  October 10th in Cedar Rapids, IA-  https://www.eventbrite.com/e/the-confused-breakfast-a-live-podcast-recording-tickets-1026951990047  —————————————————————— SPONSORS-  **Butcher Box-  Go to http://butcherbox.com/breakfast to get 20% off your first box plus your choice of free ground beef for life or free chicken thighs on or top sirloins in every box for a year. **Cedar Ridge Distillery-  Go check out our sponsor and order some whiskey.  http://cedarridgewhiskey.com **K12-  See how K12 Powered Schools can help unlock your child’s full potential.  Enroll online today at http://K12.com/confused  **.
