At first the spectator aligns with Alex as he enjoys the
films that are being shown. We also get point of view shots from him what he is
watching on the screen. As the scene goes on there are more films that are
shown and Alex starts to feel sick. Throughout this scene the camera is focused
on him from this point and then we lose our point of view from him. The camera
is also slightly higher showing he is now scared and vulnerable and we are
shown that he is distressed by what he is seeing and going through. As the
spectator we are being punished by watching the torture that Alex is going
through and it makes us feel uneasy. We are being punished as we have
participated in the violent acts he has done as we have aligned with him and
now are being punished and at this point we are unable to enjoy the film as we
have done.
