A Clockwork Orange (film)

*A Clockwork Orange* is a film directed by Stanley Kubrick, based on Anthony Burgess’s novel. It explores themes of free will, violence, and government control through the story of Alex, a charismatic but delinquent youth who indulges in ultra-violent behavior. After his arrest, he undergoes a controversial psychological conditioning called "Ludovico's Technique," which erases his capacity for violence but also strips away his ability to choose. The film raises questions about morality, the nature of evil, and the ethics of behavior modification, blending provocative visuals with a dystopian vision of society’s efforts to enforce order at the cost of individual freedom.
