"Mechanical Orange" +18

Anthony Berjes’s "Mechanical Orange" is one of the most famous novels of the twentieth century – hyperbolic drama of cruelty and evil, which was responded by Stanley Kubrik’s same named film. The film was so resonant that it was compared with Pier Paolo Pazolini’s " 120 days of Sodom-Gomorrah," with its exceed evil and human sin. Georgian theater has staged entirely different version of this novel. Avto Varsemashvili, the director, adjusted a problem - sadism to the georgian reality of 90th and other painful points, whose echo is still not completely gone away. The performance responded a variety of opinions and it certainly was, and remains as a resonant performance. My review of it would single out one important detail, the most striking was the lack of balance, because this kind of sensitive topics require more care and impartiality.
