In celebration of the upcoming 50th anniversary of its release, Stanley Kubrick’s A Clockwork Orange can soon be seen in 4K. Kubrick is considered one of the greatest filmmakers in the history of cinema, directing classics such as 2001: A Space Odyssey, Dr. Strangelove, Full Metal Jacket, and The Shining. With a career spanning almost half a century, Kubrick is known for his meticulous attention to detail and long, rigorous productions. He made a total of 13 feature films, taking longer breaks after each completion. Despite that, his films have long been remembered and served as an inspiration for both filmmakers and viewers.

Now people have the chance to view A Clockwork Orange in 4K on digital and Blu-ray in the coming weeks, with a trailer released by Warner Bros. Entertainment showcasing the best moments of the film in Ultra HD. A Clockwork Orange is based on the Anthony Burgess novel of the same name about Alex DeLarge and his journey to redemption through experimental therapy and techniques, after committing a series of crimes with his gang. Like many of Kubrick films, it received mixed reviews but upon reevaluation, is considered a classic. The movie also received four Oscar nominations including three for Kubrick for writing, directing, and producing. The nostalgic trailer can be viewed below:

Many of Kubrick’s films have been restored for preservation and has continued to leave an impact with moviegoers. Many famous directors have been influenced by him due to his filming style and inventive ways of telling a story through camera movements and framing, all of which is evident in the dystopian crime film. Kubrick has left a lasting legacy and his films deserve to be seen in the highest quality. The 4K version of A Clockwork Orange will be available to fans on September 21.
