The general story framework has not changed much, a story about an uncle in his 30s and 40s falling in love with an underage girl. However, since I happened to have read the original book, the whole film feels a little lacking.
The key is two points. One is that our male protagonist Humbert's sexual addiction was described in the original book from the very beginning, and he had some extremely crazy ideas, which is not explained much in the movie. Another, Humbert's affection for Lolita.
It can be said that if the former point is not clear, then the latter point will not come out. The second point is the essence of the whole work.
Humbert fell in love with a girl when he was first in love. This girl is older than Humbert. Between the two of them, she opened Humbert's Pandora's box in sex. But soon, she died. At this time, Humbert's "hobby" got out of hand. Married to his wife, then lost his wife, heartbroken. Move, come to Lolita's house.
When he first saw Lolita, he was attracted to her. He hired Ling Ling, Tao Xiao Li Yan, and anyone's heart would melt. Here comes the problem. In the original book, Humbert had a special sexual habit, so he wanted to take it for himself after seeing the flowery Lolita. But this is too blatantly difficult to do, so I have to curve the curve to save the country, first marrying her mother, in exchange for the two of them being physically in the same house, and then discussing the long term. In the movie, it was shown that her mother was too hard to live as a widow, but Humbert just happened to be good-looking and had some talent, so she had a good impression; Humbert also happened to lose his wife, and he was half-assisted.
Then, it was Humbert who wanted to kill his mother because she wanted to send Lolita to boarding school. This plot in the original book is very understandable, because Humbert married her to get close to Lolita. Now it is better, Lolita is going to live in school, then Humbert will lose miserably in this game. But in the movie, there are few descriptions of Humbert's sexual hobbies, so it is simply that the adolescent girls always have an inexplicable affection for the uncle, plus the quarrel between husband and wife, just based on these two points, Humbert can be drawn. To kill his wife is a bit fussy or far-fetched.
After his wife died, Humbert finally got the chance to stay with Lolita. This journey is described in detail in the original book. Facing his body, Humbert did not rush to vent his desires, but quietly appreciated and sighed. Lolita seems to be an extremely precious piece of art. Taste. There was a scene where Lolita was asleep, and Humbert almost gave her to sex, but he stopped halfway through undressing because he felt that the ketone body in front of him was shining with the light of God, she It's too sacred to be viewed from a distance. It directly writes that Humbert's brain is full of peculiar sexual fetishes. But the movie only describes the love between two people over a long period of time, which is similar to most Korean-style relationships. You can replace Humbert with Robert and Lolita with Leifeng Pagoda. The key is the quarrel between the two. Robert's brain is occupied by sex addiction, so many times he does not think as a "partner", but treats Lolita as a fantasy, the most beautiful body that he can meet, and she is the prey. , he is the hunter; she is the goddess, he is the licking dog. So many times Lolita is inexplicable in the face of Humbert's unconventional behavior, but chooses to be tolerant because of Humbert's "love". In the movie, all I see is an old man who is overwhelmed by jealousy and full of control, and can't allow his loved one to be distracted by people and things other than himself. Sick love comes from a narrow mind. I have to say that this paragraph is really too much.
Since Quilty's appearance and behavior in the original book puzzled me, I won't talk about him here. Finally, a very impressive place. Humbert ran to Lolita's house after receiving the letter. She was already married and pregnant at this time, and she wrote to Humbert because she was in desperate need of money. Humbert saw that the person who was once regarded as a goddess in his heart was now crushed by tea, rice, oil and salt. Lolita's hand let her follow him. Lolita also asked back if he would give her money as long as she slept with him. Humbert was stunned for a moment, he did not expect Lolita to say such a thing. But he still followed up with a lot of touching words, the oath of the mountains and the sea, the romance and the snowy moon, all came out, showing the true nature of licking a dog. But as for Lolita, all she wants is money. No matter what Yingti Yanwu or Lou Xinyue fan bottom wind, money is not important, only money can make her life easier. So she didn't care what Humbert said at all, and even when she saw that Humbert was out of control, she whispered and roared to tell him not to cry, because her husband would misunderstand. Alas, lick the dog, lick the dog, lick to the end, nothing.
Hey, the goddess who used to be so beloved has now fallen into the mortal world, and everyone is like a stranger. Humbert finally broke down in tears, because he knew he had lost Lolita forever. The Lolita, who once fascinated him, doesn't take herself to heart at all now.
The rest of the evening took a picture of the silver scorpion, and I was afraid that the meeting was a dream.
