A Clockwork Orange Headcanons

Whether they're serious or completely crack, everybody has some idea about A Clockwork Orange that may or may not be completely their own. Feel free to share you own, or window shop for a new one while you're here!

is this blog still going? it's awesome *D

UM. It’s kinda hard to say at the moment. I’m kinda leaning towards no, given that I’ve been bogged down with school and work and LIFE recently (and this goes for ACO Confessions as well, unfortunately.)

But even if that weren’t the case, this is a submission-run blog, and I’ve never gotten one. Ever. The ones that are up now are mine. >x>;

I don’t want to say no, though, because I do want to pick it back up eventually. I’m just... not sure when.

Mod Note:

Sorry, y'all. The words keep coming out all pixel-y on Photoshop and I don't know how to fix it. I'll keep tweaking with it, but it'll probably pop up for a little while, both here and over at ACO Confessions.

If you have any tips or tricks I could try, feel free to shoot me an ask and let me know!

Any character without a surname shares it with their actor. Pete Tarn, Georgie Marcus, etc. I also like to think Dim's real name is Warren Clarke.

It was Schroeder who first introduced Alex to Beethoven. They were both born in the fifties (if Alex was 15 in the movie) so they were little kids around the same time. Maybe Alex took a trip to the states and heard Schroeder play and they fangirled together. I dunno. It's crack.

Alex and his gang are Mods and Billyboy and his gang are rockers. Or at least whatever the equivalent is in ACO canon. Anthony Burgess said something about the first draft being about Mods and Rockers back in the 60s in the intro for "A Play With Music", and it makes a lot of sense to me.

Alex would fuck anything with a hole. I feel like that's a more accurate way of saying he's bi.

A Clockwork Orange takes place in 1971. That was when the movie was released and the technology of that time frame fits. I know that was all they had available at the time, and it was supposed to be "in the near future," but I just can't picture them with laptops or iPhones.
