Title: Far From Kubrick's Best
Review: Director Stanley Kubrick takes Vladimir Nabokov's novel and turns it into the Peter Sellers Show. Instead of a serious treatment of Nabokov's work we get a black comedy. James Mason, Shelley Winters, and Sue Lyon are horribly miscast although Mason tries his best in the role of protagonist Humbert Humbert. If you like Sellers you'll see plenty of him although his continued presence pretty much ruins the entire movie. If you want to see a good adaptation of Lolita check out the 1997 version with Jeremy Irons. Don't waste your time with this one.
