A Clockwork Orange is perhaps Stanley Kubrick’s most controversial film and one “highly praised” by the likes of Fellini, Bunuel, and Kurosawa as well as “educational, scientific, political, religious and even law-enforcement groups," but it was really supposed to be a small film sandwiched between two epics— those being the monumental 2001: A Space Odyssey and Kubrick’s white whale… Napoleon.
