Lolita is not the embodiment of desire maybe

There is no imaginary plot, the narrative nature is more, and it tells a good story about a rebellious daughter and her mother and stepfather. The mother who lost her husband pursues romance and is a little impatient to dedicate herself to a man. The daughter blindly wants the life of an artist, willful and proud. But Humbert also has something wrong. In this movie, Humbert's desire for Lolita is suppressed and not shown, unlike the 1997 version (after reading this, I feel that the 1997 version is too exposed and exaggerated) , Lolita is an ordinary girl full of fantasies about life, precocious, neither has too many improper thoughts about her stepfather, but also expresses herself rebelliously and succumbs to Quilty. Lolita said to Heng, you are always fantasizing. Yes, for Lolita, this feeling of Heng is that Heng has been suppressing himself, but instead I can feel that as Hen, as myself, many times, like Hen and Ms. Charlotte, I love fantasy and pursue. Romance, it seems to only live in my imagination, and it is mixed with a little Lolita's character traits (as a teenager who can't suppress herself, I found this movie to ease my sexual impulse, but it's funny It's ridiculous to tell Henry that when your daughter was suppressing her sexuality, the male doctor was actually pretending to be Quilty. Also, are American schools so concerned about children's mental health? ), and I clearly know that I never want to be a slave of desire. My control over myself comes not only from my fantasy of life, but also from my down-to-earth efforts. After watching a movie, I originally wanted to relieve my emotions, but I didn't expect to be my chance to see myself again.

Lolita quotes

  • Humbert Humbert: Don't smudge your toenails!

  • Dr. Zempf: Has anybody instructed Lolita in the facts of life?

    Humbert Humbert: The facts?

    Dr. Zempf: The facts of life. You see, Lolita is a sweet, little child, but the onset of maturity seems to be giving her a certain amount of trouble.

    Humbert Humbert: I really don't think that this is a fit topic.

    Dr. Zempf: Well, Dr. Humbert, to you she is still the little girl that is cradled in the arms. But, to those boys over there at the Beardsley High, she is a lovely girl, you know with the swing, you know, and the jazz, and she has got the curvatures which they take a lot of notice of.
