Guys. Lolita is such a great movie. There’s just so much wrong within it. Immoral relationships, toxic romance, a man on the run, incest(possibly), it’s just so great.
The movie kind of makes you feel bad for the male lead, Humbert Humbert, when in reality he is a pedophile preying on a young girl. He’s portrayed as a misunderstood man trying to rekindle a love he lost as a young boy. We seem to always sympathize for those who have lost and that’s where you must start to remember that Humbert is a grown man, preying on a little girl.
To make matters worse, the movie sexualizes the heck out of Lolita herself. She’s about 14 or 15 years old, a fire ball, and a free spirit. Just a sassy teenager enjoying her days. She’s portrayed as a young girl who’s basically too grown up for her own good and is made out to be the ring leader of the whole show.
Throughout the movie Lolita seems like the mastermind behind all of the events, and in some way or another, she partially is, but it is also the fault of the Hum himself and there’s no denying that.
I honestly wish i could just tell you all the entire movie here in this blog but i’d rather you guys watch it AND/or read it and tell me your views on the issue.
