A Clockwork Orange is a brutal Stanley Kubrick film, based on the Anthony Burgess novel. In the near future society is in decay, and the streets are overrun by violent gangs. The government has a new heavy-handed test project, designed to re-program these renegades, in order to free up the overcrowded prisons to make space for political prisoners.
Malcolm McDowell as Alex in A Clockwork Orange: "What we were after now was the old surprise visit. That was a real kick and good for laughs and lashings of the old ultraviolent."
Aubrey Morris as Deltoid in A Clockwork Orange: "What gets into you all? We study the problem. We've been studying it for damn well near a century, yes, but we get no further with our studies.

A Clockwork Orange – Minister Quotes
Alex: Hey dad, there’s a strange fella sittin’ on the sofa munchy-wunching lomticks of toast.
Dad: That’s Joe. He lives here now. The lodger, that’s what he is. He rents your room.
Joe: I’ve heard about you. I know what you’ve done. Breaking the hearts of your poor grieving parents. So you’re back, eh? You’re back to make life a misery for your lovely parents once more, is that it?
Joe: You’ve been like a father and mother to me. Well, it wouldn’t be fair now or right, I mean, for me to go off and leave you two to the tender mercies of this young monster, who’s been like no real son at all. Look, he’s weeping now. But that’s all his craft and artfulness. Let him go and find a room somewhere else. Let him learn the errors of his way, and that a bad boy like he’s been doesn’t deserve such a good mum and dad as he’s had…You’ve made others suffer. It’s only right that you should suffer proper.

Carl Duering as Dr. Brodsky in A Clockwork Orange: "Very soon now, the drug will cause the subject to experience a death-like paralysis, together with deep feelings of terror and helplessness.
