It’s #WTFWedesday and todays entry is Lolita (1962 US) written and directed by Stanley Kubrick. Despite my adoration for Kubrick’s work I have to put this in the #ShitMyEyesAreBurning category. A professor marries a widow to get close to her teen age daughter, Lolita, but when the mom dies he has the daughter all to himself to obsess over. But Lolita is not what she seems and tables get turned. I love you Kubrick and I know you definitely had a point but seriously WTF. The problem I have with a movie like this is there are waaaay too many people in this world that couldn’t get the point if they were stabbed with it. For them it would probably feel like permission or ideas. I watched it once a while ago and did not want to watch it again. Film critique wise it’s very well done. Of course, Kubrick was a perfectionist. Find it on HBO and Amazon or available to rent if you are so inclined. #LoveFestFebruary #Film #Films #FilmFan #Movie #Movies #Cinema #TCMParty
