Person who has no free will, is a victim of a cruel psyhological therapy (A Clockwork Orange), or a person who is unable to make it's own choices between good and bad
Anthony Burgess says "A human being is endowed with free will. He can use this to choose between good and evil. If he can only perform good or only perform evil, then he is a clockwork orange

1. Sci-fi movie/book about a retro-ish gang leader who after beating people up, raping, stealing, etc, is taken to prison where he later is chosen to participate in a "special treatment" program to "cure" him.
2. Also, a term used in the CWO book to describe a person who is perfectly moral, nonviolent, etc; but has no free will.
Clockwork Orange is the best movie ever.

A clockwork orange comes from an old London saying "queer as a clockwork orange". A clockwork orange is actually a wind up doll that is controlled by both god and the devil. Anthony Burgess uses this for his book to symbolize the government almost brainwashing Alex in order to control his bad behavior.

someone who appears normal to the eye and holds the colors of life (orange), but is really a tool for someone or something else (clockwork)
Alex, from the movie A Clockwork Orange became a clockwork orange for the government.

A object (or person in the case of the movie) which appears normal on the outside but is completely artificial on the inside.
In the case of the movie A Clockwork Orange, Alex appeared to be normal after his treatment but since he is incapable of chosing evil and is therefore forced to chose only good, he's humanity is in question.

A novel which came out BEFORE the movie, commonly fooling idiots. Learn to read.
Floyd: Have you read the novel 'A Clockwork Orange'?
Goldorf: Isn't that a movie?
Floyd: Idiot.
