| Description | In this week’s episode, Daniel and Harry are joined by Professor Nathan Abrams, a professor of film studies at Bangor University in Wales and Jewish film scholar, to discuss Stanley Kubrick’s 1971 film A Clockwork Orange, starring Malcolm McDowell. They discuss the film’s exploration of the relationship between power and authority, consider the Jewishness in its approach to free choice and accountability, and uncover the subtle allusions Kubrick makes in this, and the rest of the films, to the Jewishness of his upbringing. As always, they end the episode by ranking the film’s Jewishness in terms of its cast & crew, content, and themes. As a bonus, they conclude the discussion by ruminating on whether or not this film is “good for the Jews.” |
