Lolita, a fun road trip comedy about an obnoxious teenage girl and her wacky stepdad as they travel the great U.S of A in search of every sight the country has to offer. Along for the ride are Charlotte, Lo's overbearing but loving mother, and Clare Quilty, the eccentric playwright who longs for the talented Lolita to star in his next big production. Fun for the whole family!
@juresaiyan no im all good lets talk, the girl is 14 Humbert Humbert is 40 something what’s not to get? the film is well laid out, great character development etc all im saying is this adds to the fact I feel uncomfortable watching it regardless of quality. go on brains tell me how im wrong
It's not as controversial as the novel because Kubrick wasn't absolutely sure how much he would have to cut out and edit in order to appease the censors. By the time Kubrick realized that much would be cut out, there had already been too much time and effort invested to abandon the project. In later interviews, he admitted that, if he had known how much of this project would be stonewalled, he would have never made the film, regardless it is an amazing movie. Much better than the remake.
Honestly, this doesn't look all thaaat controversial compared to the original novel. For one thing, Nabokovs Lolita is younger. I won't go into detail about the rest, but anyone who's read the novel will know what I mean :P
@audiophil92 You're wrong. There is a passage in the book where it is explained that Lolita looks like his first love reincarnated. The age of his first love is given as 12 and a half. The actress in Lolita had just turned 13. Kubrick addresses this age criticism in the long interview you can find on YouTube and says that of all the criticisms this is one that zero validity.
@greggh ha, well that just shows that I have absolutely no intuition when it comes to telling how old girls are... The actress looked about 16-ish to me; but I haven't seen the film so I have no doubt that you're right :)
@greggh the book is totally different. as far as old film noir it is PG by todays standards but like Hitchcock it is all implied and well it's Kubrick so a must see. great black and white. as was Hitchcock's Marne, you have to be adult to get the subtle stuff, not the same audience as 2001, oh wait you get more from that later too, great cinema.
For those of you wanting to know- the song is 'Lolita Ya Ya'. The song is not yet on YouTube, but it is on iTunes; its performed by Nelson Riddle and his Orchestra.
@bluecind5 I got my copy at Waterstones. You could maybe get yours on amazon. If not, it is in most leading bookshops. Just lokk in the classics section. It's a great novel, stood the test of time, and you're in for a real treat. :D
No me parece que el sr. sea una persona pervertida! simplemente se enamoro de esta chica... el final no me gusto mucho, en cuanto a la pelicula.. Muy Buena! de verdad que si ;)
love the song and I love how Kubrick designed the trailer to be an in-joke for those who had read the book and a subtle reference to something naughty for those who hadn't read the book which is a perfect inclination for people to go see the film. If the trailer was made today, they would just reveal the secret AND give the movie's ending away in the first 10 seconds.
@PulpFictionized Read it, it's well-worth it. It's slightly long but the writing is so strong and it's addictive. One of my favorite books from this period.
@Super8StrikesBack Thanks, man! I had it on my list of books to read. I just wanted know what it was about, eh? Haha! As long as it's good! But is it a woman book or is it for both genders?
@PulpFictionized No gender lines here. I don't want to tell you what it's about because the joy I got from reading it was from discovering that a sense of new literature was being published after the WWII, things that I hadn't particularly familiarized myself with. Right now I'm attempting David Foster Wallace's book INFINITE JEST, which is brilliant. I recommend it so far.

after owning the dvd for like a year, i finally watched it. it was really good, sue was great as lolita. she was so spoilt but still i couldnt help but like her. and Humburt was fricken pathetic!
90% of "Pedophilia" = "Adultophilia" = aMused not aBused. Unheard in mainstream mass-media for-profit-not-protection the millions of 90% NON-victim Adultophiles truly know. I was 13 she 29, a memorable wonderful experience. And with respect to the 10% TRUE victims heard or unheard.
The fact that you still perversely charish the experience reveals that your adult life was shaped by your prepubescent molestation by a adult predator. Psychotherapy could help insure thay you do not become a sexual predator, as well. Good luck.
Boards: You, and many unthinking others, fall into precisely the current populist media-led Psycho-stereotypical trap that sustains such false negatives. Today's PC victims who should consult senior consultant psychiatry, not cheap pop-psycholgy for profit-not-protection. In the past corrupt media-cowed decades the US & UK are so far down the road of psyche destruction that they now sickeningly legislate against human 'tickling' and normal peer-sex. Check the full facts, not mass-media myths.
Boards: Another stereotype false assumption. Like everyone I belong to only one true club - Humanity. And I'm not a 'North American', odd there's no NAMGLA or NAWCLA, though I may start a large controversial outfit - ALANA-Adultos Love aMusers Not aBusers. Another jUnK-media-myth (like the now debunked False Memory Syndrome) is the long discredited Cycle Of Abuse from the 1980s when desperate inmates invented tales of non-existent 'acts' to gain light sentences & sympathy - MASS MEDIA MYTHS.
Sociopaths such as yourself have a very difficult if not impossible time admitting to their perversions. That is why they are nearly impossible to treat. Most psychiatrists won't even attempt treatment of pedophiles (a branch of sociopathy). Let's just hope you have a record so that you are at least posted as a sex offender, and the general public is aware of your proximity to their children.
Boards: Yet more stereotypical thinking - brainwashing ? Broaden your view a piece. Post-modern mind-bending so called 'Psychology' (Sociopathology for maybe incurable Profit-not-protection) is despised by much of serious Psychiatry. For a new start checkout the very well received "Harmful To Minors - The Perils Of Protecting Children From Sex" (controversial only to pretend-Puritan pop-Psychology) by well respected and brave serious academic Judith Levine with similar past experience to mine.
Boards: I would respectfully add, that cheap name calling/labelling cliches (Socio-Psycho etc) are unworthy, inaccurate, unhelpful to any serious debate, and also revealing of the character of the namecaller. As the leading mental-health charity 'Mind' rightly states, "Labels are for parcels not people".
wow compare this to the trailer for the 1997 movie. Really says a lot about the 1960s vs the 1990s ways of thinking(and how it affected the adaptations).
I love the music of this trailer and the film. Stanley Kubrick directed this to perfection. If you haven't seen this film, then please do so, it's brilliant. And Peter Sellers is amazing in this film as well.
