Thats not the opening music for the film... its just got him humming the theme, and this has the movie music and soundtrack running out of sync under it.

[Ghibliblackcat]

Yes, of course, I said it in the info.

That and her looking over her shoulder, It is nothing without the eyes looking back at me

@7outof9gone Yup! Just dl'd Cat People actually. Haha. Np, you're welcome. The concept of ACO is violent I grant you, but much on tv is as violent nowadays. It still packs a punch though, because of the callous characters. How can you not 'get' Monty Python?

I've been a Bowie fan for a while, why I watched this in the first place (I thought he did the whole score) so Malcolm's (and even moreso Nastassja's) acting took me by surprise. They both really sell the werepanther deal, imho

[7outof9gone]

@MmeLEnfer hey, fellow follower of Malcolm-I hope all is well. I don't mind if he's quieter in it, I will be sure to find it and I thank you for pointing it out. As for my daughter she just thinks its too violent (haha) and "fucked up". Hard to believe she's mine sometimes. Even comedy she doesnt have her Mom's love-she doesnt like Monty Python-*arg*! Says she doesnt get it. WTF? Bowie & McDowell together is def heaven and this song along with the movie showed that. Have a horrowshow day!!!

[MmeLEnfer]

@7outof9gone He's not a killer in it, but he is badass. It's a 'quieter' movie I guess, but I'd watch him act in anything. Does she have a reason for disliking Clockwork?

Interesting thing I just remembered - David Bowie who does the theme song here, when he was in his Ziggy Stardust formative years he was hugely inspired by Malcolm in A Clockwork Orange. He took a lot of clothing ideas from it - boilersuits with boots and makeup, only he made the suits patterned and bright.

@MmeLEnfer This is why the Tube is fun-I've never heard of Raging Moon-will be looking for it. Thanks! And-excellent on lovin the Clockwork-my daughter doesnt understand my love for it actually-brace yourself-called it a horrible movie and how could I like it? I questioned if she was really my daughter. She said she agreed.

[MmeLEnfer]

@MmeLEnfer They get milked up hahaha

[MmeLEnfer]

@7outof9gone I have. I've seen a couple of his movies. Cat People is still my fave, because I'm a horror fan, but I love Clockwork to bits. He's extremely charismatic an actor. I also like the Raging Moon a lot, he was great in that.

[7outof9gone]

@MmeLEnfer then you should watch A Clockwork Orange if you haven't yet. That was epic as well. Malcom as Alex DeLarge and his ultraviolent droogs getting drugged up and raising literal hell upon unsuspecting souls...........absolutely LOVE that movie

[MmeLEnfer]

@7outof9gone This is where I discovered him :D
