This thread discusses the Content article: Lolita 1962 (dir. Stanley Kubrick)

A review of Kubrick's film of Lolita by our newest kvlt contributor Spriha. I personally think it's pretty well written and expresses a fair view of the film. Looking forward to more opinions from Spriha.

P.S. If you click on his name in the review right now, you might come across my profile since I uploaded. This will be rectified once he is given content uploading privileges...sometime in the near future.

That's quite a damn good review, even though that's a book I've never been overly interested in getting around to reading.

So cheers for one more articulate film buff in our midst.

Nice.

Edit: I've linked it to the real Spriha's account.

I was frankly bored by the film, but that review is really awesome. I take back whatever I said in the introduction thread.

Can you be coerced to name-drop a few of your favorite filmmakers?

@ravenus- 'her name', you mean

@LP- Favourites would be Ingmar Bergman and Stanley Kubrick


Thanks guys.

Ah my mistake. KS has so far been such a sweaty male dominated site, I neglected to consider the other gender.

Nice save... cough*chauvinist*cough.

Sweaty male? Please, stop making us look like a bunch of jocks. She's probably imagining us hi-five-ing each other in the dressing room after we post a couple of cool reviews.

While I haven't seen the Stanley Kubrick version of Lolita, the 1997 version directed by Adrian Lyne is quite faithful to the book.
