The movie "Lolita" is adapted from Bonakov's novel "Lolita" of the same name. This time we are not talking about Master Ku's 1962 version, but the 1997 version by my favorite British genre director, in which Humbert is played by Iron Uncle Jeremy Irons, the restrained and seductive uncle Adrian Lane, and it seems that no one is more suitable to play Humbert than him.

At the beginning of the film, it tells a deformed love story from Humbert's perspective. This French professor, who lost his girlfriend when he was a teenager, rekindled the fire of hope after coming into contact with Lolita. Rita's mother married in her name, so she stayed by Lolita's side and tried to control Lolita.

At the beginning of the film, Lolita's mother strictly disciplines Lolita, and this rebellious child resists her mother everywhere. She seems to desperately want to escape from this woman who oppresses her. Lolita can think of it. One of the things she did was to seduce the man whose mother still had a crush on her. She was lying beside Humbert laughing and trying to prove that she was much better than her mother.

In this way, the plot gradually reached its climax when her mother discovered that Humbert had written all kinds of unbearable words in her diary. She rushed out of the door but was killed by a speeding car in front of the door. Now Humbert finally won the prize for good. Lolita's custody, he went to school and lied that her mother was sick and hospitalized, and on the way to a motel with Lolita, she kissed Humbert with satisfaction, she didn't know it was just the beginning of Lolita's nightmare.

In the future, Lolita and Humbert kept driving to and fro in different places. Finally, under the questioning of Lolita, Humbert told the news that his mother had died unexpectedly, that is, from then on. Lolita was forced to grow up overnight. Lolita, who lost her mother's protection, may have been unable to escape from Humbert's control. They started a long journey, and Lolita was accumulating pocket money every day. money, and plans to escape Humbert.

There is a very important detail in the novel, which is dealt with in the film's extremely short shot, that is, the book depicts Lolita crying in a low voice sometimes every night, and this sentence comes out of Humbert's mouth, and it is It seems less profound, but the movie is even more fleeting, it weakens the deformed relationship between Lolita and Humbert, and in the end Lolita will still escape Humbert.

On a rainy night, Lolita seemed to have calculated it, creating a space for escape in the hospital bed. When Humbert went to her, she had disappeared. In the original book and the movie, Lolita followed a Claire Quill, a perverted playwright, went to a villa to shoot a pornographic video, but she may have turned down his request, and he later told Humbert that he was the only man who drove me crazy. Burt is already sad that he doesn't understand why Lolita left him to marry a country farmer who may not love him at all, and is pregnant with his child, which is also the difference between director Adrian Lane and Master Ku. , the latter appears more ruthless.

The reason why Lolita escaped from Humbert was because this man really hurt the deepest part of her soul. He made her grow up overnight, and he made her become helpless and lose her mother. It was when she faced Humbert alone that she realized the cruel scene of this society, so she would rather follow the perverted playwright, and the farmer she did not love, just to escape this man, they were for this strong girl It's just skin wounds, and Humbert hurt her to the bone.

At the end of the movie, when Humbert found Luo, who was already pregnant with someone else's child, he trembled and said that the distance from the nearest motel was only a few dozen steps away, but Luo said, you mean I go to the hotel with you and you can give me some money?

So far Humbert has been disheartened, and Luo has successfully escaped his control. At the end of the film, Humbert and Lolita died in the same year, one hanged and one dystocia...

Lolita, the light of my life, the fire of my lust. my sin, my soul. Lo-Li-Ta: The tip of the tongue is upward, in three steps, from the upper jaw down gently on the teeth. Lo. Korea. tower.

Lolita quotes

  • Lolita: I was a daisy fresh girl and look what you've done to me.

  • Humbert: I looked and looked at her, and I knew, as clearly as I know that I will die, that I loved her more than anything I had ever seen or imagined on earth. She was only the dead-leaf echo of the nymphet from long ago - but I loved her, this Lolita, pale and polluted and big with another man's child. She could fade and wither - I didn't care. I would still go mad with tenderness at the mere sight of her face.
