  • I feel like MM would make a fantastic dinner date. :)

  • @clokverkorange I don't have to be a master to have an opinion. Just the way you have yours. Kubrick made great films because he chose good books. 2001 was written by Arthur C. Clarke.

  • @guyfromBR I agree. Any real "A Clockwork Orange" fan (and there have got to be millions of us) is going to want to listen to McDowell talk for hours on this subject...and all we get is a few short paragraphs. A lot of the AFI vids seem to be like this, which is absolutely horrible. But, then again, the AFI is horrible itself, isn't it?

  • MM is historically very underrated as an actor (although I never understood why SK cut him loose after CO wrapped), and it seems that he had something relevant to say; but every single subject he gets into to comment about is edited out after some few words...

    So... what's the point of posting something that's so edited that become unrecognizable and senseless?

    Better yet: where is the COMPLETE video? Or am I missing something here?

    C'mon, AFI, please, post it and spread the word...

  • My fellow Americans..

  • Holy crap, when this was released in the U.S. I was 12 days old...lol...I am old!

  • do drugs kids!!!!

  • @MatukaEdgi

    I'm pretty sure it was Atom Heart Mother.

  • heres a toast to malcolm mcdowell and his contribution to film history.

    *sips milk plus*

  • @RonAlmeida So, The Shining wasn't a masterpiece because Kubrick didn't write it? What about 2001? Unless you've directed some cinematic masterpieces, come off it.
