8. A Clockwork Orange

When it was initially released, Stanley Kubrick’s 1971 homage to government control was wildly popular wherever it went. It made $26 million in the US (which was a lot at the time) and even earned a nod for Best Picture of the Year. Some people, however, felt that the film’s graphic depictions of rape and violence were excessive and borderline pornographic. After a case of what authorities believed to be copycat violence, the film was banned in the United Kingdom. In Ireland, that ban remained active until 2000.
