Malcolm McDowell on A CLOCKWORK ORANGE 

alex t. But everything else is true ? Haha

@Julian Howard 😂😂

Most importantly, he licked a shoe 🤢

@@ecco8 he did. He really started choking on the drowning scene. The underwater breathing gadget broke down, but no one noticed it in time.

He also broke 7 ribs in the fight against Billy and his gang. He asked for 2.5% box office Stanley said there wasn't any but took it all.

so have i. he is a good man.

You two are VERY lucky to meet THE Malcolm McDowell! 😉

RandomVideoCircus l envy you

Ian Malcolm

I met Anthony Hopkins once in a restaurant that I served at, and though I wasn't his server, still had a good chat with him. I mentioned at the end of the conversation that he was very friendly and I was surprised that a man in his line of work was so down to earth and nice and he said back to me "Have you met Malcom McDowell? That's a nice guy." I honestly didn't even know who MMD was at the time so I just smiled and walked away. About a week later I watched Clockwork Orange not knowing that he was the star. Strange thing that happened. Cool experience, though.

One of my very favorite films.

Very true, I watch those movies more than anything else today.

Mike Randa does he used to be in a tv serie?

Anything with McDowell in it ages like rancid vonny chicken.

ughhhh so perfect and i honestly have no clue why? guess that's just Kubrick

+onlinekiller61 Hidding meanings? just see it as it is. No need of hidden messages.

And now, 53 years ago. And it still seems new and fresh and original and completely unlike any other film.

Yes indeed. He and Mel Gibson have some of the most beautiful blue eyes. They really stand out. And they didn't do anything to make that happen. Just the luck of having those eyes.

Where exactly is that dialect heard, Sir? I know there's several different British accents but that's all I know. Could you elaborate, please?

Hard to say: he was born in Leeds, worked in Lancashire for a while, but raised in Liverpool. At the time, 'correcting' your accent was vital if you wanted to go into most professions or get into the Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts. Thankfully not the case now.

That’s what too long in Nightmare Land does for you,He Looks very Well though.

I would say 2001 and the shining are the best, or at least my personal favorites :) .....[clockwork is a technical masterpiece and I love almost everything about it beyond the viewing experience]

A clockwork orange, 2001, The shining, and eyes wide shut are the best imo.

In other words, you love the Soundtrack......as well.

James Woody what?

2001 is my personal favourite. But A Clockwork Orange is a close second.

Uh gorgeous?? Well no I never thought so (neither was Charles Bronson, Telly Savalas, Lucille Ball, Bill Bixby-these actors attracted audiences more by their prescence)

I agree. I read later that he played villians because he lost his "pretty boy" good lucks. They didn't last. But his activng ability did. He just changed the roles he had. Then again, Alex was not a nice character. So maybe he just played more of the same. With an older face.

I loved him in that film.

According to McDowell (commentary from 'A Clockwork Orange') he was approached by Kubrick and it was said, "As I was reading this book, I couldn't get the image of you out of my head. I don't think, this movie, could have been created if you didn't exist!"

Why because it shows murder and rape

Fabe Swag It portrays the mind of a wicked man who seeks both the finer things in life, yet through subjective experience he finds pleasures in the more taboo or unheard of things some people in this world take pleasure in. Alex see's himself as a catch above the rest, one who's so used to being able to take what he wants, it's a norm. It's a bit narrow for you to focus specifically on the ideals of homicide and rape when there is a much more grand design behind the character of Alex. At the time, McDowell was already a somewhat controversial actor of the time, but also had some pull when it came to excellence in acting; he was capable of putting himself into the mind of what I'd call "a civil maniac" and that is essentially an oxymoron.

SlamifiedBuddafied DON'T TOUCH THAT! IT'S A VERY IMPORTANT WORK OF ART.

***** I'm afraid you've lost me.

This comment was 10 years ago. Wow lol

Check out gangster no1

Led to suicide because they brainwashed him artificially, relating Beethoven to violence. Stress and fear comes from that, this could be made to any normal human. You didn't understand Kubricks/Burguess whole point. They see the state violence, brainwash and cinism as bad as Alex violence. Also, that violence to cure violence it's an infinite wheel, and a man without choice is not a man, Alex should be in jail instead of brainwashed and used politically.

Robson1898vascao you don’t know that

That's what happens when you live and work an X amount of years in the US.

The old in out in out scenes
