Crash: or Oklahoma, as I shall prefer to call you from now on,
There is a point to the muddled frenzy you saw in A Clockwork Orange. You had problems with the aggressive nature in Kubrick showing the worst of the worst in the character Alex. But cheer up and let your stomach get better because there is a point. Storywise, the movie speaks for the first part to the adventures of a pyschotic teenager and in the second part, he is caught and jailed for his crimes. The third part is the rehabillitation he must undergo in order to get out of jail for what he did and in turns, gives up his basic human rights of emotion. Emotions that the state feels will turn him to do wrong again. In this, Kubrick identifies what he believes society may end up doing in the future and that is a bringing of a harsh code in order to keep itself surviving and not being drawn out from outside influences. It is the pure opposite of anarchy. The showing of the violent acts in a very high tone at the beginning was basically to make the audience hate Alex, which in turn made the audience get mad at themselves when they began to sympathize with him after he underwent the "treatment". The idea brought up emotions that many audience members couldn't stand feeling or thinking about, and that was uhumane treatment to a person deemed unhumane by their own consensus. The heavy stylization plays to how the movie is a fable, in the sense that all of Alex's victims seemingly are the ones that get their revenge on him and like role reversal of Alex from bad guy to victim, we see it in Alex's former victims as well. The stylization shows the world beyond the bare realism of the story so it doesn't look absurd, which a fable may seem when spoken naturally. I didn't rip crash apart personally, but I did my best with his argument though.
