A CLOCKWORK ORANGE (John Schlesinger, 1968)

Scientists cure a futuristic gang member of his predilection for “ultraviolence” - at the cost of his free will. The Rolling Stones star in this dystopian satire, along with Anita Pallenberg, Ronnie Corbett, Derek Nimmo, and Paulene Stone.

MOTOR CITIES (Syd Mead, 1977)

This experimental cartoon proved to be a surprise art house success. A visual tone poem, containing neither dialogue nor a vocalized narration, examines the importance of cars to the modern American psyche and society.

"Rewrite the entire corpus of human knowledge" is the kind of shit that someone in an old James Bond film would say, followed by Sean Connery sipping a Martini and remarking "He's quite mad you know" before tipping them into a volcano half an hour later.
