For some unarticulatable reason, the use of that little piece of Rosetti overture in that movie always feels to me as if I were just mainlining pure and uncut genius straight off the screen. As, for example, in the callback to the above in this scene:

Re: Making A Scene - Favorite Film Clips
I agree C2W, how the music is used in both is genius. The scene you posted is another very memorable one (it wouldn't play, so here's the link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ve_iVqtvG94) for me. I think those two are brilliantly choreographed by Kubrick; in fact the whole movie is choreographed in a way I don't mind the violence because it's so staged. I used to have the soundtrack on LP--another piece I liked was when Alex walked home through his tenement, there's a beautiful variation on the theme music, but I couldn't find a clip.compared2what? wrote:For some unarticulatable reason, the use of that little piece of Rosetti overture in that movie always feels to me as if I were just mainlining pure and uncut genius straight off the screen.

- I say there, pray tell, do my ears deceive me?
Is it Rosetti, or The Thieving Magpie by Rossini?
And, I bet you thought I wasn’t paying
attention.

Given that you’ve got minus one-second more to feel shame or whatever, I know that you know that I know when Rosetti placed next to Rossini next to some Mozart, it gets, I mean, I scratch my head. So, I offercompared2what? wrote:You KNOW that's what I meant.
