Stanley Kubrick's adaptation of Vladimir Nabokov's controversial Lolita is a wicked satire of sexual obsession, sadomasochism, and fetishism. When mild-mannered professor Humbert Humbert (James Mason) arrives in the small town of Ramsdale, New Hampshire, he is immediately set upon by his landlady, Charlotte Haze (Shelley Winters), and her adolescent daughter, Lolita (Sue Lyon). Although Humbert gets involved with Charlotte, it is Lolita with whom he becomes obsessed. [rottentomatoes.com]

"A strange, sexy comedy combining the best of Kubrick and Nabokov."
      -- Jeffrey M. Anderson, San Francisco Examiner.
