Stanley Kubrick’s chilling masterpiece set in a dystopian England stars Malcolm McDowell as Alex, a sadistic gang leader who finds himself imprisoned for a heinous crime. While incarcerated, Alex undergoes a radical behavior modification program to earn his freedom. Equally as mesmerizing as it is disturbing, this is one of Kubrick’s most fascinating entries in his filmography. Rated R.

This ongoing series allows staff at the County Theater to pick and present their favorite films to our engaged community of cinephiles. This month’s selection of A CLOCKWORK ORANGE will be introduced by County Theater Manager, Abby Forkell, as their Favorite Film. "Malcolm McDowell is perfection as Alex DeLarge. Thanks to a fantastic script, he disappears into the role and displays an impressive acting range. The one aspect that makes A Clockwork Orange my all time favorite movie is its ability to keep the audience engaged without feeling trapped in its dystopian setting."
