Top 10 Banned Films
2. A Clockwork Orange
Stanley Kubrick’s adaptation of Anthony Burgesse’s “unfilmable” dystopian novel is now seen as a seminal movie-but at the time was banned and panned for it’s constant violence and the depiction of rape. Kubrick, annoyed at the backlash the movie was causing for his family, recalled the movie himself and tried to acquire all the released copies. Now, it’s considered one of his finest stylistic movies, with Malcolm Macdowell acclaimed for his performance of the terrifying Alex DeLange.
