Lolita (MGM, 1962)... (8 items)

Description

Lolita (MGM, 1962) Lobby Card Set of 8 (11" X 14"). "How did they ever make a movie of Lolita?" In 1962 the answer to that question was to capture the inherent feeling and emotions of the novel without filming it all literally. The idea of a middle-aged college professor lusting after a young girl is softened somewhat by making Lolita older than in the book. Stanley Kubrick, working from Nabokov's screenplay, was able to soft pedal the sensational aspects of the novel and concentrate more on the absurd. These are absolutely flawless cards. You will never see better condition. Mint.
