“Running around the yard, the park, the block – Stanley Kubrick’s puppy.”
You lost me. :·)
"Being" is acting as a relative pronoun, such as "in which". The actual subject of the sentence (the movie) is omitted/implied.
So, "A Clockwork Orange, which is (being) the adventures…”?
The sentence fragment with an implied subject is something that's been trendy in the last few years on social media.
"In which I pretend to be some sort of a grammar expert on Twitter."
The lovely thing about english is that it is so fluid, everyone reading this hot mess of a sentence assumed it was likely valid
"being the adventures of" was also a somewhat common subtitle descriptor in older (1890s-1910s?) adventure stories. Serials etc.
replace "being" with "these are"
or maybe even "composed of" - it's describing its essence/contents.
