      Lolita: Uncover the Motives behind Character Behavior

      Ordinary people watching this movie may think it is an incestuous and chaotic abnormal relationship, but from the perspective of psychological counseling, we must look at the characters objectively, without moral criticism; we must "see the essence through the phenomenon" and explore the motives and causes behind the characters' behaviors in order to prescribe the right medicine for treatment. The film reflects the effects of a typical "unfinished event" on people....

      Lolita--A Seductive And Beautiful Movie

      There is a song called Lolita. There was a time when I liked to listen to a single loop and even set it as my phone ringtone. There is a movie of the same name, adapted from the novel "Lolita" of the same name. But I prefer another translation of his title, "A Pear Blossom Presses Begonia". This last name is full of temptation and imagination. In most men's hearts, there is more or less a...

      【Lolita】

      An obscure and unworldly love, in the end, did not exchange for another's sincerity. Maybe most people will remember this as an ethical story of a stepfather and a daughter, but what struck me in the end: I thought it was a double arrow love, but in the end Lolita chose someone else.

      There are a lot less emotions and feelings than the original book, and what the first half brought me is just: Lolita is so beautiful! I have fallen! It is impossible to see that he is 14 years old, but he...

      Nothing useful

      Talk about Lolita. Lolita was initially attracted by Humbert's reserved artistic temperament, which led to curiosity and goodwill. Later, it was the daze after the mother was killed, so that Hengyi never paralyzed himself. When she gradually came out of the shadows, she first struggled, because these etiquette and literature and art were contrary to her simple and happy American thinking similar to her mother, but she soon found that simple struggle was futile, so she began to use money as...

      Through the mirror

      Love really needs the right time and place. I don't want to judge Mr. Humber's actions from a human point of view. He's so invested in his love for Lolita, he's looking for a memory, trying to capture how his first love made him feel. In the end is the mirror. He never really got Lolita, and he misguided this girl whose logic was a little different from ordinary people. Blame yourself, and regret always comes at the end. But I am still sad. He is not as gentleman as I thought before, not...

      Kubrick's version is so obscure that it doesn't say a word about sex. I haven't read the original book and I haven't seen the other version, so it's hard to understand Lolita's feelings for her stepfather. The black and white picture is not rough, and the details of the lines are in place. I really want to see the color version of the...

      Maybe I watched the 97 edition so deeply that I didn't feel much about this edition; the heroine of 97 probably referenced this edition, but the wickedness far surpassed this edition; there are also male characters in this edition The protagonist is really too... Shen Yun is almost...

      Compared with the new version of the film, it is obvious that the director's focus is different. Obviously, Kubrick doesn't like to be controlled by the characters' emotions, but instead depicts and ridicules their identities and backgrounds from a distance. Lolita looks a lot like Ellen Page, and it really is the classic look of Loli, but the final appearance is not well designed, and despite the music, it seems powerless. The design at the beginning and the end is very...

      This version of Lolita is too precocious, too smart, too feminine, but it's really beautiful. It's just that this sensitive and delicate subject doesn't fit Kubrick's style. If there are no subtitles I would prefer to believe that this is Hitchcock's...

      The uncle's feelings towards the heroine are like those of Du Wei's boyfriend fans. He wants to be a father and mother and wants to be the only boyfriend. He is still a cultivator. The desire for control and possessiveness is overwhelming. It's a pity that you not only don't love you and don't repay you, but also fall in love with a scum similar to you who has done nothing for her. In the end, you will end up with an unremarkable person. In the end, Du Wei has...
