Yes he is. However in the American version there isn't really an ending. You decide whether or not he is actually cured. In my mind he is once again the same perfect sociopath he once was. If I wrote the book I would have made a sequel where he comes back and gets revenge on his droogs.
That would be an interesting concept. It's a shame however that the original author of the novel hated the movie Mr burgess, however didn't realize the effect that it would have on the people, people such as myself as well as countless others. We can all thank Stanley Kubrick for an amazing adaption, there are differences yes but imo good ones. His directing was perfect "Just singing in the rain!" Haha
I couldn't agree with you more. May I ask what affect it had in your life? It also made a big affect in my life as well.
Movies, have always had an illuminating effect on me. If they are good they would open the senses just about on anyone that would care to take the message of them. They have that voyeuristic appeal that has always taken root in me. They can give people a sense of "power" or, "outrage" depending on the nature of the film. You can notice things in films that you would never make the connection in real life, a sort of "illustrated existence" while on film. The "affect" that A Clockwork Orange had on me was that, I knew societal standards were a depletion of true character on anyone. The burdensome activities and the religious context of the way society "pushes things on us" to make us "normal" is just silent malevolence on their part. They try to control things, and exercise the power they think they have upon us for a tribalistic gain.
Movies can make us heroes or villains.
