  • omg, hes still sexy and cute...i'd still do him

  • I think the killing,paths of glory,dr.strangelove,the shining and full metal jacket are his masterpieces.Films i can see something different each time,but im completely entertained throughout each time as well.His other films(spartacus,lolita,2001,cl­ockwork orange,barry lyndon and eyes wide shut) have flashes of brilliance,but they either don't entertain me,or they can't keep my attention like the aformentioned films.Clockwork was entertaining,but i found it extremely disturbing to truly enjoy

  • Dr.Strangelove, 2001, A Clockwork Orange, Barry Lyndon, The Shining, Full Metal Jacket and Eyes Wide Shut are like one long multi-faceted masterpiece of timeless, vivid, powerful, unforgettable cinema. I love them all equally, they are just the best there is, the very best.

  • Looks Like Sting Really?

  • Haahahahhaa.... he still kinda speaks in nadsat!

  • Just saw Barry Lyndon this week and I was stunned by it. So beautiful, but also moved me to tears when Barry's son dies, had me on the edge of my seat with the suspense of the climactic duel, made me laugh when the delightful Andre Morrell made his appearance and more. It seems all his main characters are capable of bad things, having a dark side, but they are always sympathetic too and all the films end with some kind of hope or optimism.

  • Malcolm McDowell read Horror Audiobook "The Bobbything"

  • Nobody ever mention "The killing" and especially "Lolita". Why?

  • A Clockwork Orange, Burgess and Kubrick's beautiful abomination... I love the book, the language, the film, and above all- the character. Chapter 21, read it. I'd love to make a short film just for Chapter 21... I feel the films ending was a little short compared to the books final- "Amen. And all that cal." - ending

  • Clockwork Orange is one of the greatest films ever made. I think it's the acting and the surrealism of it. It's just an amazing film.

    Malcolm McDowell will always be Alexander DeLarge.

  • McDowell was and I believe still is an amazing actor it's too bad his career plummeted after Clockwork & Kubrick was pure genius there is no other words that can be stronger to describe Kubrick. RIP Stanley.

  • mcdowell is such a great bad guy actor its a shame hes being wasted on sum right shitty films like tankgirl,milk money,magoo,i spy

  • sounds like stand up

  • Twenty takes?! Wow!

    He is hilarious. Long live Malcolm! :D

  • What exactly is this from? I've heard and seen more clips from McDowell talking like this (in a very stand-up comedy type way), but I don't think he actually did comedy shows.. Did he?!

  • lol malcolms so funny. But DAMMIT!! I'd give anything for him to have stayed exactly the way he was from clockwork orange, soo cute! It makes me soo saddd when u fall in love with an actor and then u find out he's an old man now (altho he's still not bad) I just wish I cud go back to the 70s

  • The coolest British actor ever. "A Clockwork Orange" is a masterpiece--thanks to McDowell and Kubrick.

  • i like how this dude keep's popping up out of nowhere in post apocolyptic films...i'm always the one to point him out to my friends

  • Damn my best actor of all time even as a old man Malcom bloody rocks hes got something about him that says cool

    ive got a massivew poster of him from

    a-c-o on my wall (: !!

  • Best actor ever ;]

    We're all getting old..

    Malcom McDowell for King of The World.

  • Yep, hes a true ! legend (:

  • better than the average standup

  • kubrick tortured him by ordering unnecessary amounts of takes because of a spat in their friendship. mcdowell would never forgive him for almost killing him until after kubrick's death.

    kybrick may be a brilliant film maker and a genius by any standard.

    but he was also a dick.

  • his breathing equipment didnt work and he nearly died.the other actors thought he was acting the part just goes to show ya what a fantastic actor malcolm mcdowell is to carry on

  • LOL - I always wondered about the amount of takes in that scene...Now I know.

    There is another scence in that film which I wonder about and that is when Alex get taken to the water basin by the ex-droog policemen and they just about drown him.Either Malcolm can hold his breath for a long time or or there was a trick of some kind going on.He couldn't have been breathing as there wa no bubbles coming up.

  • I heard that story years ago. That he had the actor spit into McDowell's face many times until he got it right.

  • lol i see him in the monk a show that its quite funny...

  • His strongest period, from Dr. Strangelove all the way to Eyes Wide Shut, he's proven to be the greatest director that ever lived as far as I'm concerned. He's always been my fave. Among all these classics, 2001, A Clockwork Orange and Full Metal Jacket are his true masterpieces.

  • Barry Lyndon is a beautiful movie.

  • I agree with you but I include that even his early period pieces are beyond almost anything we can see in cinema. examples?

    look at these three titles:

    The Killing (definition of black humor), Paths of Glory (outstanding and poetic warpiece), and Spartacus (modelling our view of roman empire).

  • agreed...but I'm more partial to Paths of Glory of the 3 u mentioned....I think it rivals (or even surpasses Full Metal Jacket as the greatest anti-war flick) Although his vision was DARK, I absolute LOVE Kubrick, and I miss that guy so much...

  • @GUIDOBRAT Shining, my friend,you're forgetting about the Shining

  • @GUIDOBRAT paths of glory is from his earlier period but i still thinks it deserves to be mentioned

  • Which actress? The rape victim? She didn't do alright, she was horrible. Wooden as they come. Just STOOD there and let those guys have their way.

  • just STOOD there

    WTF? LOL She tried to kick herself free while a man restrained her.How is that just standing there?what a moron

  • Wrong mr.wonder as soon as alex takes her belt off she tries to kick him, then dim restrains her.And when dim WAS carrying her she tried to break free, you can see that when he starts to molest her.And as far as her just standing there while they finally peeled her clothes off,yes she was.But is there a guarantee that every woman would keep fighting?Or resign to their fate,in case of being hurt even more?Remember the kid in jaws paralysed with fear?Not everyone reacts the same way pal.

  • It's true. And if you watch carefully, she actually voluntarily brings her hands around behind her back so Dim can hold her by the wrists. I agree, she didn't do much to resist. That was a weak point in an otherwise brilliant movie.

  • It doesn't show him as sympathetic, it actually spends the first 3rd of the book (30 min of movie) showing you how evil he is. The whole point is you can't force good, it has to be something someone accepts on their own.

  • McDowell's best role - one of the best screen performances of all time

  • Kubrick didnt write Clockwork Orange Anthony Burgess did and the polemic is more Catholic than Jewish as it espouses original sin over socialisation. Interestingly in the book though Alex is cured very simply- he just grows up!.

  • He`s right, Berkoff is a penis. I sat behind Berkoff on a plane once. He gave the guy he was sittng next to hell, for simply opening his newspaper....an arrogant git.

  • the point of the film is that alex is evil. he's a bad person. but is it right to brainwash him into something he's not? for the good of society? being good doesn't make him happy, it made him suicidal. And if you're going to acuse stanley kubrick of that just cos he is jewish, well you're definately showing the evil inside yourself

  • funny story... if you watch the scene he's talking about, it's really quite a good spit.

  • How did this get marked as spam?

  • Comment removed

  • Na, he has a lot of respect for the man, he's just joking around telling funny stories and such. I tell set stories too and have heard my fair share, just people seeing the humor in all the craziness that occurs during a production.

  • He can still be considered a crazy bastard.

  • na, just a perfectionest

  • A crazy bastard perfectionist.

  • dude, if you hate Kubrick so much then why are you looking for videos about him?

  • Why not tell the world? Why do so many people like him and his work anyway?

  • Cause it's not cool to be a troll, and because the man was a film genius! His work is amazing and he's something we'll probably never see again unfortunately.

  • Wow. Check out that shot at 00:00. Look at Alex's fake nose and where its pointed.

    BTW, the actress who plays that girl SUCKS. No talent, she's just lifeless.

  • lol, good catch. Idk about the actress, she did alright for what she could do.

  • Comment removed

  • Who knew that Kubrik was into bukakke?

  • OK, Malcolm, but when Stanley finally got the take he wanted, it was, in fact, perfect. I'm glad he had the patience to keep going until he got what he wanted, even if you found it annoying (as, admittedly, anyone would)! If he had done anything less, he would not have been Stanley Kubrick, the master, and we would not have his films, a collection of masterpieces.

  • Comment removed

  • "clockwork clockwork blabla controversial"...

    You do know that Malcolm played Caligula aswell do you, just putting it out there.

  • Kubrick was right though; I remember that shot vividly.

  • anybody realize he plays the President on Fallout 3?

  • really?

  • Yeah, his voice is hard to miss. He was also in Wing Commander III (the game).

  • Ah yes, the game had far better actors in it than the movie did.

  • Malcolm Macdowell, what an actor! A Clockwork Orange still rocks!!

  • he was amazingly hot when he was young

    the first time i watched that movie (about 7 years ago) i didn't know how old the movie was and fell completly in love with that dude then i searched for pictures of them on the internet and to my surprise i found out he was born in 1943 and that the movie was from 1971

    he's amazing

  • omg!! I agree with you, I also tought the movie was not so older!!! but Malcolm is a great actor, and he was and still so cute!!

  • I know! He was absolutely, smoking hot. But still, a great actor nonetheless

  • Yeah we would all love him to stay exactly how he was back in A Clockwork Orange... He was so adorable. But what I like is that he actually didn't change that much. He'll stay a fit and charismatic man untill he dies.^^

    Yay for Stanley Kubrick. He is one of the greats.

  • a clockwork ornage was one of those films that should have got the oscars but got F*** over by a better film, aka the french connection.

    If any hollywould person is listening GIVE MALCOLM THE F***** OSCAR ALREADY!!!

  • clockwor was to controwersial to get the oscars and it shuld its a legendery movie

  • are you fucking telling me clockwork orange got screwed over some forest gump horse crap. that was a complete different era for cinema. there was loads of ballsy, terrific movies like the godfather, last tango in paris, the exorcist, taxi driver etc. etc. and gene hackman is perfect as unstable obsessed cop. I love clocwork orange but if you are saying french connection is something like chicago you dont know what the fuck are you talking about.

  • I wonder if he's still up for a bit of the old UltraViolence? =P

  • he is always ready to give some pretty polly the ol in-out in-out.

  • And all to Bethoven's 9th, I presume.

  • He`s great

  • Kubrick sounds lik an obssesive compulive

  • **: everyone has his way to be dealt with :)

  • He's awesome.

    I got to meet him.

  • LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    If you're gonna bash someone, you could at least try to spell correctly. Seriously, that was pathetic.

  • Out of interest why did you watch this if you hate Malcolm Mcdowell?

    If you like Stanley Kubrick then fair enough :D

  • Beside that i ADORE Kubrick's artwork & that he is my all time favorite director , the opinion that almost everyone here seemed to dislike _& which i don't intend to repeat by the way _ is that i find Malcolm Mcdowell attitude toward Kubrick is so hypocrite when his conscious awakens suddenly after 30 years of massive attacks on Kubrick as both a person & as a director JUST because he felt that NOBODY is gonna take it no more after Kubrick died as legendary figure, if u see what i mean :)

  • Kubrick was a genius but his man management skills were-by all accounts- poor, to put it mildly. Mcdowell attributed his performance on CO to the English director Lindsey anderson, who instructed him to play everything as if it were in close-up. Famously, Kubrick never spoke to mcdowell after the final day of filming.

  • well , i'll have to respectively disagree with :)

    Kubrick was not poor in man management but he was famous for being a perfectionist , so he would not move to the next scene until he gets 100% of what he wants from from the current one , so he was accused of being a control freak or a heartless director , but the final quality of his films would often allow him to have such power over his tools _which he considered actors are amongst !_ even from actors themselves .

  • there is a lot to tell u about in this poin , but i'll sum it up that every1 wished to work with Kubrick even though the SPOOKY tales surrounding him _Tom Cruise did EWS for free !!, & in a closer look he was not (poor) in man management , but he knew exactly how to deal with every1 separately,&Malcoim is the kind of a little proud who would not let any extra offences from a director pass easily m , so Kubrick with his pragmatic way befriended him during the shooting coz that's the way with him.

  • after Kubrick never called him after the shooting , he understood that Kubrick actually tricked him & USED him with his super-intelligence & that he would never befriend him for life _Kubrick was a very islolated n reclusive person , u wont find any famous friends for him except maybe Spielberg_ , So Malcolm with his hurt-self-pride kept cursing him all his life.

    & Kubrick was a very controversial person , there are many who disliked him & many who liked _even loved_ him.....

  • GeorgeC.Scott swore that he will never work with him again ,he was very cruel with Shelly Duvall but even Shelly told that she learned a lot from him & that he made her a better actress ,while he was so different with Tom Cruise & Jack Nicholson who loved him as a person & enjoyed working with him , so u see he was not loser in dealing with actor ,( actually the opposite is the true ) , he had just dealt with actors like objects.

    if u see he was like : everyone has his was to be dealt with :)

  • its funny how Kubrick has stated, the best actors he has worked with were, Peter Sellers, Malcolm McDowell, and Jack Nicholson

  • i hope thats a genuine dislike he has for berkoff.

  • A true son of England! *salutes*

  • Such a truly handsome older man, Mr McDowell!

    And such a fluid mover!

  • Shut up!! He looks handsome now!!

  • genieshanu.........if you can grow younger instead of older, let me know.

  • lol!

  • I'll never be able to watch that scene the same way again.

  • Awesome! I love crazy people. Yea Malcolm, stop getting older!!!

  • As Soren, he said, "Time is the fire in which we burn". Looks like HIS time is BLAZing.

  • I want to know what it would be like to meet the young Malcolm from the Clockwork era and see him work in movies this day and age.

  • and thank god for that.

  • royal flash i cant stop laughin.hes great

  • Why does he have to be old v.v

  • i would of like to met him after he had acted in a clockwork orange, would be interesting.

  • all those drugs

  • Everybody does. And it'll come soon enough.

  • lolololol... acerca de Stanley Kubrick... a actriz Shelley Duvall do filme "The Shinning" fez 100 takes (um recorde) os gritos de desespero da atriz na cena "Here is Johnny" pareciam reais. Talvez por que fossem reais. lol

  • Malcolm is awesome, I cant wait to meet him in Feb 2008 at the Texas Frightmare Weekend!!!! He will be in Dallas along with 50+ other horror stars!!!

  • McDowell is a great actor (If... ; Clockwork Orange)

    Kubrick is just perfect, his craft of filmmaking is the best in film history. Every time i watch any of his excellent movies i have to cry because of the beauty of this perfection, i don't know what kind of person he was, but he is a genious, nobody could shot a movie like he did.

  • love Kubrick, love MacDowell...great video!

  • The executive producer on Clockwork Orange spoke to one of my classes and he discussed how absolutely petrified Malcolm McDowell was of Kubrick. He talked about how Malcolm fractured his ribs and even nearly had his eye ripped out by the device they sit up in the straight jacket scene. It was pretty interesting.

  • Stanley Kubrick stories are hilarious. I think the man was a genius, and that cinema would be very different without him, but man, what a pain in the ass.

  • Malcom's lament is just. Everyone involved in the torturous clutch of a Kubrick production complains about the endless takes. I credit Maclom for coming up with an anecdote in place of viper spit in light of Kubrick's sadism

  • Love you much malcolm !

  • I am a big fan of Stanley Kubrick but the problem is that I can't hear what Malcolm McDowell is saying. I can't hear this very well.

  • You could always learn Dutch...

  • thanks. that was real horror show

  • That came in handy for me this time :)

  • I really like this guy! He played amazing in A Clockwork Orange! It was absolutely obsessing!!! He is a great talent. It's a shame that he hadn't won an Oscar for Alex DeLarge...

    About Kubrick... What can I say more. Is one of the best idrectors ever!

  • i swear, NO-ONE on youtube has a rational argument ; everyone is an arse kisser or an arse hole.

  • I no long care if this man is 40 years older than me. I want him and I want him *badly*. I wish his son was an exact replica of him.

  • Malcom was amazing on Clockwork orange

  • lol malcom's funny in this film .he's one of my favorite actors.

  • oops by " film " i meant " video " .

  • For all the McDowell out there....Check "If". The full movie in 12 parts is on this very site! McDowell's VERY FIRST FLICK

  • I've been looking everywhere for the full "if" and all i could find is the cafe scene. What do you type in?

  • that's why Stanley was great a great director, he was uncompromising

  • Hahaha, I love Stanley.

  • Malcolm mccdowell its my favorite actor

  • Black is definitely Malcolm's colour. ^_^

    ~Ami

  • Yeah, cos he's a fat arse lol

  • Fuck you.

  • It is grossly overpraised. There's an arrogance in Kubricks direction, his dispassionate, portentous style, that pisses me off.You lot buy into it, and think you're witnessing genius. So 'Fuck You' mate.

  • lol youre a dumbass

    i think youre confusing Kubrick with David Lynch

  • No confusion here mate. There's nothing portentous or pseudo-profound in Lynches work. You can say it's absurd or difficult or to art house but you can't say it's portentous! So I guess you're the dumbass afterall. HA HA!!

  • HAHAHAHHAHAH

    "There's nothing portentous or pseudo-profound in Lynches work."

    and then you go ahead and call Stanley Kubrick pretentious and pseudo-profound... LMAO dumbass

  • Which it IS bollock face. You're a little sheep with the sensibilities of a five year old mental defective. "OOH slow camera work, strange music! Must have GREAT meaning!" So HA HAHAHAHAHAHA! Don't comment again. You've been bitch slapped too many times already ; )

  • yea you dumbass slow camera work, "strange" music doesnt mean it has a great meaning, it means Kubrick knows how to direct a movie well

    and as for the "strange" music you pathetic kid: i rather listen to Beethoven, Mozart, Strauß, etc than Rammstein or Marilyn Manson (2 examples of the music Lynch chooses for his films)

    now if i was as fucking dumb as you are id also want me not to comment again since you sucker know that you can only lose anyway

    spastic

  • HA HA HA HA!! You prick. I know more about music then you know about going down on your own sister. I wasn't refering to the classical or romantic orchestral music cues but the experimental avant garde cues (which I happen to think are the strongest part of his films)

    And "slow camera work" and "strange" music don't necessarily a good film make. So you lost mate. No hard feelings I hope Mr.Fuckflaps. : )

  • hi you fucked up brat

    "I know more about music then you know about going down on your own sister."

    true you know a little bit more than nothing about music

    "And "slow camera work" and "strange" music don't necessarily a good film make."

    no it doesnt, but if youre really trying to say that Kubrick was a bad film maker in terms of techincal aspects, then youre even more of a dumbass

    and stop it with the mate/bollock/whatever shit yer island monkey

  • If you mean that Kubrick was great 'just' because he could execute the technical challenges he set himself with precision then youre an idiot;that's not the pimary benchmark by which a director or any artist is judged. His films are a pose of the profound, an empty firework show, a psuedo-philosophical bon bon offered up to the slathering idiots who are 'serious about film'. HA HA HA!!! Say Hi to your sister ;)

  • hahaha

    if Kubrick is pseudo-philosophical then what is Lynch? PLEASE

    ahahahahhahahhahahah

  • Surreal.

    ahahahahahahaha

  • Oh and why does your defence of Kubrick rest so strongly on your questioning of Lynchs work?

  • because what you criticize wrongly about Kubrick exactly applies for Lynch actually

    especially considering idiots who think that that wannabe's movies are "deep" lmao

  • You've erected a straw man argument there cock chomper. Lynch has nothing to do with Kubricks failiures as an artist. Best stop leaning on other factors to make your argument work Sir.Fuckaflappas

  • so you needed 2 weeks for that reply? lmao

    Kubrick's failures? hahaha youre a funny fuck

    PS i didnt say Lynch and Kubrick have anything to do with each other

  • 2 weeks? Nah. Why do you keep bringing up Lynch then you fucktard?

  • lmao cant read you dumb fuck?

    i already said it

    anyway, do me a favour, shut the fuck up if youre too stupid to comprehend

  • My argument isn't in support of or against Lynch so what's the point of bringing him up? Oh yeah, I remember, you don't have an argument do you, so you've just invented one. ahahahahahah what a desperate twat you are!

    Face it, you've got pubescent tastes.

  • Basically edbingey is talking sense, zonkov88 is'nt entirely wrong inwhat he says, it's just that (and i gather this from what he says) he can't think outside the box. Let him stick with his narrow minded view of cinema and end the argument!

  • Id have to agree, I think its overpraised. Its Stanley's most immoral work I think.

    I hate it when people are too defensive about movies. I wished one of them (edbingey & zonkov88) would just end the conversation with, "Lets agree to disagree."... "Fucktard, dumbass, bollock face..." <Its sad people cant have intelligent and compassionate conversations anymore.

  • here here

  • I agree, even though I personally love the film. So few people can argue without an arsenal of pointless personal attacks. It's art, nobody is right or wrong.

  • Macolm will never age in the film. He said "I was the first Punk"

  • I've seen him in a couple other movies

  • most definitely in agreement w/ phille22. i'm 4ever in anger at french connection for beating it 4 best picture, and for the academy for not nominating malcolm. it's too bad he aged at all, albeit well. he was really fucking gorgeous in ACO.

  • Malcolm McDowell is a great actor.

  • Currently studying Berkoff so was a nice surprise to hear his name mentioned. Shall put that in my research I think: Berkoff even spat a few times on Malcolm McDowell :P lol. Bloody brilliant was Kubrick.

  • Malcom is incredible, Kubrick was a genious.

    Forever Awesome People!!

  • thanks sooo much for posting this, wow he has aged well!

  • I'd do him...

  • Real horrorshow clip. Thanks for posting!

  • i love malcolm now and forever =)

  • ACO. Best movie ever.
