Kubrick also released 2001: A Space Odyssey before A Clockwork Orange, so he had some mojo working for him there, too. 2001 is arguably the best film ever made, and it cemented his legacy. I loved Clockwork, but I don't think its his best film. Its a bit hammy at times, but it nails the sociopathy to a tee when it needs to.

My favorite Kubrick works are as follows:

5) Full Metal Jacket
4) A Clockwork Orange
3) The Shining
2) Dr. Strangelove
1) 2001: A Space Odyssey (which oddly had very little to do with outer space)

BTW, if they're playing Culigula in your art history class, its time to find a new art history class. Its a horrible movie that simply exploits the history for visceral, sophomoric pleasure. It was made by the publisher of Penthouse, for Christ's sake.
