Man, it's like I can play the movie in my head while reading the script

This movie actually gets sicker the older you get

Alex:
What exactly is the treatment here going to be then?

Dr. Brannon:
Quite simple really. Were going to show you some films.

Alex:
You mean like going to the pictures?

Dr. Brannon:
Something like that.

Alex:
Well that's good.
I like to viddy the old films now and again.

And viddy films I would. Where I was taken to, Brothers, was like no cine I ever viddied before. I was bound up in a straight jacket and my guliver was strapped to a headrest with like wires running away from it. Then they clamped like lidlocks on my eyes so that I could not shut them no matter how hard I tried. It seemed a bit crazy to me but I let them get on with it. If I was to be a free young malchick again in a fortnights time I would put up with much in the meantime, O my Brothers.
So far the first film, was a very good professional piece of cine. Like it was done in Hollywood. The sounds were real horroshow, you could slooshie the screams and moans very realistic. You could even get the heavy breathing and panting of the tolchcoking malchicks at the same time. And then what do you know, soon our dear old friend the red red vino on tap. The same in all places, like it was put out by the same big firm, began to flow. It was beautiful. It's funny how the colors of the real world only seem really real when you viddy them on the screen.
Now all the time I was watching this, I was beginning to get very aware of like not feeling all that well. And this this I put down to all the rich food and vitamins. But I tried to forget this concentrating on the next film which jumped right away on a young devotchka who was being given the old in-out, in-out. First by one malchick, then another, then another. When it came to the sixth or seventh malchick leering and smecking and going into it, I began to feel really sick. But I could not shut my glassies and even if I tried to move my glassballs about, I still not get out of the line of fire of the picture.

I'm going to be sick.
Get something for me to be sick in.

Dr. Brodsky:
Very soon now the drug will cause the subject to experience a deathlike paralysis together with deep feelings of terror and helplessness. One of our earlier test subjects described it as being like death. A sense of stifling and drowning. And it is during this period that we have found the subject will make his most rewarding associations between his catastrophic experience and involvement with the violence he sees.

Dr. Brannon:
Dr. Brodsky is very pleased with you. You've made a very positive response.
Now tomorrow there will be two sessions of course. Morning and afternoon.

Alex:
But it's not fair, It's not fair that I should feel ill when I hear lovely, lovely, lovely, Ludwig Van .

Dr. Brodsky:
You must take your chance boy. The choice has been all yours.

Alex:
You needn't take it any further sir. You've proved to me that all the Ultra-Violence and killing is wrong and terribly wrong. I've learned my lesson, sir. I see now what I've never seen before. I'm cured. Praise God

Dr. Brodsky:
Your not cured yet boy.

Alex:
But sirs, misses, I see that it's wrong. It's wrong because it's like against society. It's wrong because everybody has the right to live and be happy without being tolchoked and knifed.

Dr. Brodsky:
No, no, boy. You really must leave it to us. Now be cheerful about it. In less than a fortnight now, you'll be a free man.

Minister:
Ladies and Gentlemen. At this stage we introduce the subject himself. He as you will perceive, fit and well nourished. He comes straight from as nights sleep and a good breakfast, undrugged, unhypnotized. Tomorrow we send him out with confidence into the world again. As decent a lad as you would meet on a May morning. What a change is here ladies and gentlemen. From the wretched hoodlum the state committed to unprofitable punishment some two years ago. Unchanged after two years. Unchanged, do I say? Not quite. Prison taught him the false smile, the rubbed hands of hypocrisy. The fawning greased obsequies leer. Other vice it taught him, as well as confirming those he had long practiced before. Our party promised to restore law and order and to make the streets safe again for the ordinary peace loving citizen. This pledge is now about to become a reality. Ladies and gentlemen, today is an historic moment the problem of criminal violence is soon to be a thing of the past. But enough of words. Actions speak louder than words. Now, observe all.

Minister:
Fine my boy. Absolutely fine.
You see ladies and gentlemen, our subject is impelled toward the good by paradoxically being impelled toward evil. The intention to act violently is accompanied by strong feeling of physical distress. To counter these the subject has to switch to a diametrically opposed attitude. Any questions?

Chaplain:
Choice. The boy has no choice has he? Self interest. The fear of physical pain drove him to that grotesque act of self abasement. It's insincerity was clearly to be seen. He ceases to be wrongdoer. He ceases also of being a creature capable of moral choice.

Minister:
Padre, these are subtleties. Were not concerned with motives. With the higher ethics. We are concerned only with cutting down crime, and relieving the ghastly congestion in our prisons. He will be your true Christian, ready to turn the other cheek. Ready to be crucified, rather than crucify. Sick to the very heart of the thought of even killing a fly.
Reclamation. Joy before the angels of God. The point is that it works.

Alex:
That's right Dad they did a great job on me. I'm completely reformed. ticks of toast
