This scene actually took 10 days to shoot, which is crazy.

Crazy.

I mean, I think it was about the same for the home invasion scene that we'll get to later.

But yeah, lots of blood, sweat, and tears put into this movie, especially with the physicality that we'll see later.

But this scene where we meet Billy Boy and his rival gang about to do the old in-out on a weepy young Devachka.

um i find this really interesting because of the way that it introduces us to the violence of the movie um it immediately to me felt like a cheeky nod from kubrick that this violence is not real that it's staged by literally putting it on a stage immediately um And I don't know, to me it felt like it was also shot the way that you would watch a play where it just kind of like this fixed, the camera's in sort of a fixed position except to follow the action back and forth like your eyes would scan across the stage.

And it's definitely, it stands in contrast to the very like frenzied way that some of the violence later on is shot.

So what's the difference between the film ending and the book ending?
