| Wednesday January 09 16:00:06 2013 [2441] A Clockwork Orange (1971) |
| Description: After she falls for the old "There's been an accident, may I use your phone?" trick, she gets lifted over the shoulder of one the baddies who invade her home. He holds her standing with her hands behind as the lead baddie Alex (Malcolm McDowell) proceeds to gag her with a red ball and transparent adhesive tape, then cuts off her red pantsuit (starting at her breasts), all the while belting out a rendition of "Singing in the Rain". The scene occurs in the first 30 minutes. Apparently, the actress spent much more time gagged than what is seen in the movie, because Kubrick filmed this scene several times and wasn't happy with it each time - until he told McDowell to just "do anything he wanted". McDowell decided to belt out "Singing in the Rain" and Kubrick was so pleased with how much better the scene became that he acquired the rights to use the song immediately. Also of interest is a pop art painting of a woman who appears to be bound and gagged, seen during a second home invasion about 25' later. It's never shown in closeup, though. |
