I watched A Clockwork Orange several times as a kid. I watched Stand By Me once. I've referenced the Ludovico Technique a time or two back on the IC. That's one of those flicks that will really stick with you.

I voted for A Clockwork Orange.
 
Clockwork Orange is some off the wall shit and a classic, but of course I resonate with Stand By Me more.

Haven't seen stand by me but clockwork is one of my favourites. It's so different and surreal I felt like I was watching something more than just a movie or a piece of entertainment. It feels like art.
 
Both are classics in their own right. SBM is more inviting and watchable. ACO is a literal mirror to society, the themes and sound chosen is a standard for sure plus it came out in 1971. Most definitely ahead of its time.
