Details LOLITA (Stanley Kubrick, 1962, 35mm, 153 mins)
A European professor (James Mason) rents a room from an American widow (Shelley Winters) and becomes infatuated with her adolescent daughter (Sue Lyon). Kubrick’s adaptation of Nabokov’s novel is an unsettling and darkly comic exploration of desire, power, and self-delusion, all to a cheeky Nelson Riddle score. A favorite film of David Lynch, Sofia Coppola, and Paul Thomas Anderson. Introduction by David Bromwich. 35mm print from the Harvard Film Archive.

The Kubrick’s Maze” film series is a complete retrospective of the peerless, provocative cinema of Stanley Kubrick, screened entirely from film prints.
