We are flipping the Movie Almanac back 50 years when Stanley Kubrick released A Clockwork Orange. Cinematically, it broke new ground, split the critics, and remains to this day hugely controversial. Alican Pamir has more.

France's President Emmanuel Macron is meeting with leaders of the Visegrad Four in Budapest. At a time when relations between the European Union and the Visegrad Group have been strained due to disagreements over migration policy, the French president's visit is seen by some experts as a gesture of reconciliation. And as Paris prepares to assume the leadership of the EU Council in three weeks, is Macron positioning France as the leader of Europe and looking to take a tougher stance on immigration?

Five years ago, an American family purchased an unknown drawing by Albrecht Durer, thinking it was a replica. What cost them $30 turned out to be a 500-year-old masterpiece estimated to be worth up to $50,000,000.

Critics love asking if Hollywood has run out of ideas. When looking at the newest Ghostbusters film, The BBC wondered if nostalgia is killing cinema. Chris Columbus said in an interview that there is no point in remaking Home Alone. And Vanity Fair gave a backhanded compliment saying Netflix's Cowboy Bepob is the rare remake that works. Alican Pamir argues that there is more substance to remakes than what critics will give credit for.

A musical career doesn't get any better than Bob Dylan's. He is one of the best-selling musicians of all time, he’s won a Pulitzer and a Nobel, and now he is being recognised as a visual artist. But that last accomplishment took a while.
