You have a room for film?

Yeah, me and my housemate live in a huge bloody five bedroom house and we only use two of them so I converted one of the spare rooms into my film room, basically I just stacked all my video's and dvd's around the edges so it's easy to choose one when I fancy it. Been meaning to put shelves up for ages but just haven't got round to it yet. :(

Surprised to see so many negative posts about Clockwork. Though it'd be well loved round these parts.

likewise.

I'm a big fan of the film myself, one of my all time favourites, an incredible film, as is much of kubricks work.

The controversy over A Clockwork Orange back in the early 70's I think was quite predictable. Sadly not much has changed since then (remember last years furore over Eastern Promises). Certain films seem to be selected by the press for condemnation - and most don't deserve it.

What happened with Eastern Promises Angel? I don't remember hearing anything at the time, was it anything to do with the fact it portrayed the Vory V Zakone that caused controversy? because it wasn't too extreme as far as violence goes. Personally I really liked Eastern Promises (Although the ending was a little rushed and unsatisfying IMO) Mortensen was brilliant in it.

If I remember rightly, the drama was all about 'little' Vigo - not the violence per sa. I did think it was a brutal movie though! Brilliant also, but certainly brutal.

Really? Is that what it was about, that's ridiculous. Yeah, it was kind of brutal in some parts. Fantastic film but I really wish the ending had been better, couldn't help but feel a bit cheated by it. Eastern Promises and History of Violence were both brilliant, really loving Cronenberg's new stuff.

I know it caused a lot of concern in America - so it wouldn't surprise me if it's the cause here too!

I was left wanting more, which is rare from films today. When it ended I would have happily sat through another 90 minutes of it! Here's hoping for a sequel :)

The Mail were gunning for the BBFC after passing the film which of course contains scenes that were "likely" to pose a danger to society. Sure thing.
By the way I bought the DVD today but haven't got around to watching it yet.
