Week of June 12-June 18: All about Eve (1950) & A Clockwork Orange (1971)


A Clockwork Orange: I don't like this film. I first saw it nearly fifteen years ago, when I was in college. I didn't like it then, and I don't like it now. If possible, I actually dislike it even more now. I mean, I get it. I understand why it's "important." It's impressively acted, full of captivating visuals, and is an undeniably visceral  experience. It's uncomfortable, unsettling--and that's the point. And that's fine. But it's not for me.
