Also in Leon the professional where they cut the chain right off if you open the door even slightly. Funny how in that movie Leon also likes Singing in the Rain. Wonder if that's coincidence or intentional
No only that was important to be on the movie, (Malcolm McDowell's idea of singing this while dancing) after this scene, were Frank and his wife are brutally assaulted while he is singing and tolchocked him, Alex treatment at the Ludovico's goes the same way, combining horror-show, suffering illness while listening music to create discomfort and pain and traumatic feelings. It's a sin, for sure, that is why he suffered a lot. When later in the movie Alex realized he was Home 🏡 again, Frank's Home, he started to sing the Gene Kelly song again on the bathtub and Frank hears the song suffering from the same illness of association of the horror-show with music that Alex himself created. Such a great movie.

I remember singing this at work and the bosses wife complained about it after that I come to work and had a glass of milk on my desk and drank some as I smiled at her she again complained and I got sacked haha
It occurred to me that this scene may have significantly inspired the Fallout franchise - which juxtaposes upbeat 1930s music with a post-nuclear wasteland.
@@hrerekivarsson9372 Google defines that word as "Unnecessary, unprovoked (usually brutal) violence; violent acts simply for the thrill and entertainment of it" (and I would agree based on the general way it's used in the book and movie), so it doesn't necessarily include the juxtaposition with a pleasant tune.
I watch this movie in sweden in 1988. Went with my girlfriend and some of her friends (all girls) Afterwards we were numb and shocked, we were all about 18 and 19. To this day i hate this movie, it hurt then and yes even now, it still hurts.

Está escena es increíblemente morbosa. El señor Gene Kelly había logrado cambiar el sentimiento negativo hacia la lluvia, asociandola con la alegría y el amor. Está escena da vuelta todo eso para transformarla en la antesala de la violación, la muerte y la destrucción del conocimiento (manifestada en tirar los libros). Muy turbio y oscuro, todo un signo de nuestro tiempo que el director y el actor supieron captar.
