What was the name of that movie

What was the name of that movie ?




I have a memory, of, at a drive-in-movie, in the 1970's?, watching a new release American movie [which was set in the U.S.],
it had a dystopian theme, where, as a response to rampant psychedelic drug-taking,
the government of the day, embarked on a social policy of opening huge drug camps.

The purpose of the camps, was to allow those adults who wished to use illicit drugs, to lawfully do so, inside the camps.

And any and every, illicit drug that they wanted would be supplied to the 'inmates' of those 'communities'.

But the 'catch' of this drug program/policy was,       that once a person entered such a camp, there was no exit.

Clockwork Orange is a classic - some confronting scenes in it, but still a very good movie.

One of Bobby Sox's favourites, I believe.

The only drugs I remember being used in Clockwork Orange weren't taken by choice.

I remember taking a girlfriend to see it in the cinemas once, and she walked out after about 25 minutes.

She lent over and whispered to me "I can't handle this any more, I'm going home".

Ah, but that MRB is moderated by a wanker who uses it to voice his own political and other opinions, so it's not really very 'appropriate' is it........

It wasn't a movie. It was Yadda experiencing precognition of his life as a Mossad hostage.

The Moloko Plus, also called Knifey Moloko, and the "Moloko Drengo" is a fictional highball cocktail drink, in the novel and film A Clockwork Orange.[1][2] Even the book fails to specify ingredients, and there seem to be many variations, all of which use a large milk base and some have drugs, such as barbiturates, added. One drink had no drugs, but finely chipped glass, "with knives."

The book states one may have moloko plus with 'vellocet' (amphetamine), 'synthemesc' (synthetic mescaline), 'drencrom' (adrenochrome) or other hallucinogen substances.[3] Minors may be served such drinks, since they are drugs that have not been declared illegal.[citation needed] The drink's name originates from the Russian (and thus Nadsat) word for milk, "Молоко", and thus the drink is translated as "milk plus". The main characters in the book prepare for "ultraviolence" by drinking it.
