The only movie I've ever seen that faithfully followed the book (even
including exact dialogue!) was "A Clockwork Orange." Even so, I guess
Burgess was upset with the movie because it made Alex out to be kind of
cute and sort of a hero, instead of the piece of slimey scum that he was
supposed to be. But I think that was largely due to the charm of Malcolm
MacDowall (he just couldn't help it!).

New way? What's this about a NEW way?
