Tough one, they are both so great. I will vote for Cuckoo's Nest, as I don't think any other movie has affected me quite so deeply. I hate that nurse so much. But still, they are both amazing.

Wow. You are a sick individual.
 
I was thinking something like that.  I never saw Clockwork Orange as 'fun' ! 
 
It is rather grim overall


There are loads of hilarious moments in A Clockwork Orange. It's certainly a dark and disturbing film, but there are comedic parts that cut the tension wonderfully. That's one of the things I love about it. One quick example, the part where Alex is in the hospital and he keeps popping his mouth open to receive bits of disgusting looking hospital meat cracks me up every time.

The one without all the rape. To be fair, though, my Netflix Instant stream of Clockwork Orange was jacked and desynced very frequently, so I didn't get the whole effect of the movie.

You don't find graphic depictions of rape to be a little unsettling?

That's exactly why I called it "disturbingly good" in my previous post. Those scenes are tough to watch..some people find rape nothing more than animalistic behaviour.
Albeit I think it is a good movie..have to take the good with the bad.
