Well, now we all your a girl. Giggity. Speaking of which, there was some of the best boobage ever in A Clockwork Orange. I felt bad for Alex when he had the treatment, though it was karma getting him back. Can you imagine get a sickening feeling everytime you wanted to get it on or everytime you felt agression? O_O

It's interesting that they went with the American ending, rather than the (true) British one.

Kubrick said he never read the original version until he was nearly done with the movie. He also said later he didn't think the last chapter fit the rest of the book so he wouldn't have added it anyway.

Yes, it's by Anthony Burgess. Who said: ". . . it became known as the raw material for a film which seemed to glorify sex and violence. The film made it easy for readers of the book to misunderstand what it was about, and the misunderstanding will pursue me till I die. I should not have written the book because of this danger of misinterpretation. . ."
