It is a film created by Stanley Kubrick that is better than the book

Yes. The actual story, I found a bit thin. It does convey the importance of music to Alex's brain in a rather more effective fashion than what was showcased by the film.

>implying the book therefore has no basis in the literature board

get the fuck out of /lit/, your "the film of this was actually better" trolling attitude ruins perfectly good threads.

are you just criticizing the book based on its perceived popularity amongst a certain demographic?

that barely counts as criticism.

>> No.472516

My favorite part is when Alex assaults than woman with a giant penis.. or when he is kicking the old man and singing Singing in the Rain.

the film is worse, imo

Not only is it less funny than the book, it is also less physically violent, less sexually violent and, most importantly, less moral.

chapter 21 is Alex in all his troll-tier glory
