“It’s a stinking world because there’s no law and order anymore! It’s a stinking world because it lets the young get on to the old, like you done. Oh, it’s no world for an old man any longer. What sort of a world is it at all? Men on the moon, and men spinning around the earth, and there’s not no attention paid to earthly law and order no more.” –Tramp, ‘A Clockwork Orange’.

Ultraviolence, indeed.

Even more shocking since Alex and his droogs are all female, something inconceivable when A Clockwork Orange was written.

I think Rutger Hauer in “Hobo With a Shotgun” is more the man for these times.
