In an England of the future, Alex (Malcolm McDowell) and his ``Droogs'' spend their nights getting high at the Korova Milkbar before embarking on ``a little of the old ultraviolence,'' while jauntily warbling ``Singin' in the Rain.'' After he's jailed for bludgeoning the Cat Lady to death, Alex submits to behavior modification technique to earn his freedom; he's conditioned to abhor violence. Returned to the world defenseless, Alex becomes the victim of his prior victims.
