- The movie opens with a happy scene—sunshine, rainbows, flute tunes.
- Just kidding. It's a solid red screen with really unsettling music.
- Now the screen is blue.
- Now it's red again.
- Now we see Alex, staring at us with fierce blue eyes, one of them done up with fancy eyelashes.
- He's drinking milk, with a friend on each side. And the table, which he has his feet propped up on, is made to look like naked women.
- He introduces his friends as "droogs": Pete, Georgie, and Dim.
- He says the milk has a special chemical in it, which gets them ready for some "ultra-violence."
- We cut to a drunk man lying under a bridge and singing loudly.
- Alex and his droogs walk up and beat the man. Oh, come on: his singing wasn't that bad.
