Monday Double: A Clockwork Orange + Full Metal Jacket

Kubrick’s twin masterpieces collide, from ultraviolent youth rebellion to the dehumanising machinery of war.

A CLOCKWORK ORANGE (1971) | R18+

Malcolm McDowell stars in the sci-fi satire based on the novel by Anthony Burgess. Gang leader Alex (McDowell) lives a life filled with crime, sex and the music of Ludwig Van Beethoven. When his crimes catch up with him, an opportunity to participate in an experiment goes awry. Banned from release when made in 1971, Stanley Kubrick's film has since become recognised as a masterpiece of cinema.

15 minute intermission.

FULL METAL JACKET (1987) | R18+

A pragmatic U.S. Marine (Matthew Modine) observes the dehumanising effects the Vietnam War has on his fellow recruits, from their brutal boot camp training led by Sgt. Hartman (R Lee Ermey) to the bloody street fighting in Hue, in Stanley Kubrick's 1987 wartime epic.
