Analysis Of A Clockwork Orange English Literature EssaySinging in the rain, Im singing in the rain. As this vivacious pains disappears into the terror of the night, the emergence of one of the greatest novels and flicks, A Clockwork Orange, begins to take shape. Anthony burgesss present-day(a) novel, A Clockwork Orange, and Stanley Kubricks large(p) movie, A Clockwork Orange, based upon the novel, have many principal(prenominal) similarities and differences, which fear in confirming A Clockwork Orange as one of the most terrifying, yet extraordinary pieces of cinema and literature ever to be created.One of the important similarities amidst Anthony burgher novel and Stanley Kubricks outstanding movie of A Clockwork Orange is the interpretation of what the true meaning of A Clockwork Orange which is important because it is the basis for the whole story because he has been brain washed by the government to make him act the way they want him to act. In A Clockwork Orange, Alex i s only A Clockwork Orange, something mechanistic that appears organic.

Alexander was responsible for driving Alex to sheer madness to jump out of the window.Unlike Anthony Burgess contemporary novel, Stanley Kubricks outstanding movie was completely different in the second encounter with the man whose wife had been raped and killed by Alex and his friends. The man, having been beaten so badly in the first encounter, was straight in a wheelchair, and accompanied by a huge, strong man named Julian, whom helped F. Alexander do the things that he could not do in a wheelchair. Also, plot Alex is offered a hot bath, he sang the song Singing in the Rain, which he had sung during the first encounter with F. Alexander. Having sung this song, the man at erst recognized and realize d that Alex had been one of the hoodlums that were there on the night he had been beaten, and raped his wife. Also, having realized after the bath that Alex was responsible for his wifes death, he drugged Alexs inebriety rendering him unable to ever know the mans name, F. Alexander, and proving that F. Alexander was responsible for having tried to kill Alex by driving him to madness to jump out of the window.Anthony Burgess contemporary novel, A Clockwork Orange, and Stanley Kubricks outstanding movie, A Clockwork Orange, based upon the novel, have many important similarities and differences. These similarities and differences however, help to mold in my opinion one of the greatest novels and movies of our time.
