Ludovico Technique: A Clockwork orange

Waterboring Torture Scene - Zero Dark Thirty

The scene in Zero Dark Thirty shows a man getting tortured using the technique of water boring. One of the shocking factors in this is that the person who is being tortured is being held down by two other men and so he is helpless as he can't move or fight for himself. Other people may see this as a good thing for example Americans. It can be compared to A Clockwork Orange as the two characters seem to be distressed by what is happening to them.
