From: Tony Williams English SIUC A CLOCKWORK ORANGE is not officially banned in England. Stanley Kubrick has withdrawn it from theatrical and video release. He is fed up with the ways in which it is usually reductively understood, especially in being regarded as the first "video nasty." England is now one of the most censored countries in the world. The cultural level has really declined after 16 years of Thatcherism and the increasing domination of Rupert Murdoch on media and newspapers. Kubrick basically withdrew his work in despair at what is going on. ---- To signoff SCREEN-L, e-mail [log in to unmask] and put SIGNOFF SCREEN-L in the message. Problems? Contact [log in to unmask]
