Based on the novel by Vladimir Nabokov. This film like the one made by Kubrick pushes above and beyond the social acceptance of the day. Hubert Humbert is a middle aged novelist who has rented a room in the house of Charlotte Haze. Hubert's twisted little dream comes to life little by little, as he finds himself getting closer and closer to Charlotte's daughter. Things become even sweeter when Hubert marries Charlotte, making little 14 year old Lolita his daughter. Charlotte unravels Hubert's plot to be close to her daughter and in one of her moments of weakness commits suicide, leaving Lolita all to Hubert. What follows is a twisted incestual relationship which leaves Hubert the victim. Over done at times, the visuals in this film help to more than make up for some of its shortcomings.
