Hi, Regarding description of _A Clockwork Orange_ and audio description, reading from the original text (since the film is an adaptation of the original book - and one of the finest films) would be appropriate. The author, Anthony Burgess, was a linguist and included a glossary at the end of his book for the strange vocabulary he created for his characters - of neo-Elizabethan English slang mixed with Russian terms. Glossary could be made available at beginning or end of presentation and/or independently in Braille/print form.
