Singing in the Rain vs. Clockwise Orange

The movie Clockwise Orange featured today was completely different and bizarre from that of Singing in the Rain that was presented in the last class period.  Singing in the Rain was very bright and cheerful, with the dancing and singing throughout.  While the film's focus was figuring out how to create a talking picture, Clockwise Orange was using new special effects and drama.  Clockwise Orange seems to be might to shock the public and present a way of life that is completely different but present during the time.  The film was probably use as they're way of telling the public how bad it was to follow this group and that it was unacceptable according to society.  
Although Clockwise Orange already had the talking picture and color figured out, the special effects were still evolving during this time.  I think that both were contributers to today's films that are produced because one built on another.  Without Singing in the Rain, there wouldn't be the performance and speaking effects, and Clockwise Orange set a new stage for new topics, colors and effects.
