Clockwork Orange

[Jason Shiffy]

Bought that movie 2 days ago and watched it for the first time. I thought it was an awesome movie but sometimes i needed Dutch Subtitles to know what they were saying. Was it some place in England they have that kind of talking?

[freetoaster]

I oughtta kick you in the face!

[donkey]

no, it was a style of talking i believe made up in the book... Sometimes it's ahrd to follow in english.

[JK]

It's a dialect the author made up, called Nadsat, Cockney, Slavic, Russian derivatives.


By the way, welcome to the 'stop, Jason.

[Miguel Sanchez]

Has anyone heard the audiobook to this? Phil Daniels makes a much better Alex, in my opinion.

You would be forgiven for not understanding some of the dialogue. I found myself analysing previous sentences from time to time, even just to work out the jist of what was just said.

I belive one can purchase some of the furniture from that film. Mmm...booby.

[Jason Shiffy]

Thanks for the welcome :D

I Bought like the digitally restored movie and it looks so great. If someone put New Release on the movie , i would have believed him!

I'd buy the penis chair/scuplture and use it to attack intruders.

[Jason Shiffy]

Great story @ Heaven for those intruders XD

Daisy: I wanted to sell some cookies and some man attacked me with a giant pee-pee.

Daisy: I wanted to sell some cookies and some man attacked me with a giant pee-pee.She provoked me.

[ZBarclay]

She provoked me.

He said giant.

[Jason Shiffy]

what the hell? With the cookies? XD
Daisy: We've got butterscotch
By-Tor: WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT SUPPOSE TO MEAN? *GRABS PENIS* (that sounded wrong :X)

[By-tor]

He said giant.Just don't stand too close to me if we happen to go piss in the men's room at DragonCon at the same time. I don't think you'd look too good with an eyepatch...

Wow, I nver realized before, his eye-patch is a chin-strap. Riviting! Yeah, not really.

This is a great movie, although when I told my dad about it I got a surprise. Apparently he saw it around 20 times at the theatre when it came out until him and his friends memorized it. I’m guessing it was during his hash smoking phase.

[chelsea_9]

a theatre here recently showed it as a midnight double feature along with the warriors.
i showed up but somehow managed to lose my debit card that day, so i missed out.

A little late to the party, but I love this movie. This is my favorite Kubrick film. I think it has a great moral and presents it in a... different way. I never got around to reading the book though.

[Affleckie]

I have an exceptionally cool paperback copy of this. It was printed in 1972 and has "Stanley Kubrick's first motion picture since 2001: A Space Odyssey" written on the cover.

/swoon.

I'd seen the movie many time, but I never picked up on the Russian derivatives in the dialogue, even though I had taken 2 years of Russian language, until I read the book. Somehow seeing it printed and spelled out phonetically in English made it click for me...horrorshow...
