It’s hard to believe it was 40 years ago that the late Stanley Kubrick’s classic film “A Clockwork Orange” hit theatres and took the cinematic world by storm. Nominated for 4 Oscars (Best Director, Best Film Editing, Best Screenplay & Best Picture), “Clockwork” was released in 1971 and has never been forgotten for being brilliant yet equally disturbing. For those of you not familiar with the film here’s a quick synopsis:

In future Britain, after a number of brutal rapes and murders, charismatic delinquent Alex DeLarge is jailed and volunteers for an experimental aversion therapy developed by the government in an effort to solve society’s crime problem… but not all goes to plan.
