Good movie, good scenes
I read the book "Clockwork Orange" around 1970, so it's a little hazy now. The book was written in the gang's lingo, a quasi-English/Russian dialect. There was a glossary at the back of the book that was well used. It was about 100 pages before I was used to the lingo and my friends said about the same. It was a "horrorshow" (good) read.

U-571 - in one of the scenes a crew member can be seen lathering up, I guess that could be implied shaving.
Rounders - Matt Damon and Edward Norton get shaved at a barber shop.
Un Chien Andalou - Luis Buñuel and Salvador Dalí. An utterly mad surrealist short film including an infamous straight razor moment. If I'm not mistaken someone here uses a still of the film's stropping scene as their avatar.
Jean-Claude Van Damme shaves Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje's head in the movie Legionnaire when they both get to Africa.
League of Extraordinary Gentlemen
Dances with Wolves
The scene just before his horse was stolen.
