I think I might have been the one who made the comment about "A Clockwork Orange" that OP mentioned.

If that's the case, I want to clarify that I specifically said it was the 1971 movie of "A Clockwork Orange" shown/seen in a movie theater (on a huge widescreen) that I found to be monstrous and misogynistic, not necessarily the novel on which the movie was based. The experience of seeing and hearing acts described in a book acted out on a huge, much larger-than-life screen is, to me, different to reading about those acts with no pictures or sound effects.
