Clockwork Orange was banned in the UK after fears that it would incite hooligans to violence. Kubrick then decided he would not allow the film to be shown in the UK. There was a big deal right about the time he died in 1999 about showing the film commercially and whether his estate could still block the film. I believe it eventually was shown on UK cable. I did not understand Eyes Wide Shut as it kind of went over my head. The first part of Full Metal Jacket was great I thought once they got to Vietnam (or south London where it was filmed) it ran out of steam. My favorite is Dr. Strangelove which I think was funny and terrifying at the same time.
