53 years ago, this hypnotic trailer announced a masterpiece of science fiction that intended to celebrate the history of cinema forever

In 1972, four years later, when he mentioned the souls of the world in 2001, the spacecraft Odyssey, Stanley Kubrick returned with his new work: mechanical orange. At that time, the filmmaker was already considered a visual genius, and every new film was expected as a Messiah.

Therefore, when discovering the first pictures of mechanical orange, society was a fever. After studying experimental science fiction in 2001, Kubrick returned to Earth’s views more earthly.

The American director led us to the 21st century, who is suffering from violence and filth. Alex (Malcolm McDowell), the leader of the young gang, sows terror with the sadness of Kabak. When a captive, the state sees the ideal Guinea pig for a radical experience: eliminating crime by reprogram of the human mind. Brutal origin of mental control and crushed freedom gap.

Unlucky and disturbing trailers

In the early 1970s, in order for the public to see the movie, Warner Bros Studio published a trailer who made a date. Rhythmic by attractive music drawn by Gioachino Rossini, Guillaume’s opening to tell youThe pictures of this airline showed small parts of the film. The latter had words written in large white letters on a black background.

Specifically, we can read adjectives that featured a feature film: “Metaphorical”, “Sardonic”, “Comic”, “Stimulation”, “Musical”, “Sophisticated”, “Political”, “Dangerous” or even “satirical”. The trailer ends with the title of the film, which seems rough, all red blinking.

We especially remember the adjectives that name the film, with all the strange plans, without context, without violence, eroticism and strangeness, which helps the aura of mysteries around this cubic project.

In addition, this trailer breaks the codes with ultra -fast editing, bombing a disturbing image viewer. Music also promotes the installation of a terrible and absurd atmosphere, thus causing the public curiosity. Removing the sound or explanatory dialogues, it plays with mysterious, shock, curiosity, and prohibits it.

Finally, a trailer for mechanical orange shock, temptation and intrigue as the film itself. He does not sell the story, but appreciates sensory and moral experience, traveling to discomfort.

With its visual and sound aesthetic, it results in a hallucinated, distorted, almost surrealist world. Everything that eventually characterizes Stanley Kubrick’s cinema. This is what is also awesome, even today.
