Brian at Storytellers Unplugged recently watched the movie and his post gives his thoughts on the superiority in many ways of Burgess’ novel on which it is based. This reminded me of my reading the book late last year and my subsequent purchase of the movie. I’d done a presentation highlighting some of the scenes and compared the two versions although unfortunately, the presentation got hung up on technical difficulties with the equipment and it was never seen.
I am still intrigued by the method and means of storytelling, and Brian’s post will serve as a reminder to get this project in a form that can be viewed online as A Clockwork Orange is an excellent example of the pros and cons of film versus book.
