Kubrick's version is superior.
Kubrick's version is superior
For me it's Leon
Watching this shit right now. it's so lifeless compared to Kubrick's one. It honestly feels like im watching a lifetime movie.
it lacks the satirical humor of kubrick's. I'm only 12 minutes in and i already want to turn it off.
They're both shit. There's smoking in both of them.
Fuck off with these bad movies
She gets naked in this one though so that automatically makes it better
Nothing Kubrick has made has been shit.
the only reason i think "people" (pedos) prefer Lyne's is that its more graphic.
Do you know if people smoke in the novel? If not I very strongly agree.
>Hey let's take this literal masterpiece and turn it into a glorified cigarette ad
You can't do it with a 16 year old Dolores, she has to be 12. So it can't realistically be done. Kubrick focused more on Charlotte, which was the only option really.
Fear and Desire sucked donkey balls
She doesn't have to be 12. honestly 14 is fine like in Kubricks.
Sue Lyon is also more alluring than dominique swan. Makes it easier to sympathize with humbert.
Lynes version has a girl who looks like she's 17 dressed like she's 9 years old. It looks retarded
She's an adult dude, non of the Lolita movies have been truly pedo
Sue Lyon was actually 14. so she was the closest thing. she felt more realistic than Swan playing a child.
nymphettes already start to lose their charm by then according to Humbert, it's really not the same. but I liked the focus on charlotte, she's a tragic character really.
the lynes version acting is so bad. wow. and people actually like this movie.
Its been years since ive read it. Probably it did but also its something that should be left out. Its one thing to write such a thing but is entirely different for people to actually do it
>she has to be 12.So it can't realistically be done
Jena Malone was 11/12 in Bastard Out of Carolina. And they had the fingering and the rape scene. But not the masturbation scenes
I prefered this version.
what is this?
What's that? I can't find it.
Just some pedo kino
The Russian version is the best
Swithed Lyne's off, put Kubricks on.
The lifetime movie acting, and poor framing, is not worth the gratuitous sexual scenes.
so what version do I watch and WHY?
Kubricks because its kino.
Lynes if you want sex scenes
Kubricks is a work of art. Lyne is lifetime tier smut.
No I don't think so. Looking back it seems like Humbert is directly asked if he smokes and he ignores the smoker. Nabokov wasn't a big fan of smoking iirc, he 'objected to the post-coital cigarette as an artist' or something.
