Lolita Blu-ray (Warner)

RELEASE DATE: May 31, 2011

First time on Blu-ray and an Amazon exclusive. Lolita is a 1962 comedy-drama film by Stanley Kubrick based on the classic novel of the same title by Vladimir Nabokov. The film stars James Mason as Humbert Humbert, Sue Lyon as Dolores Haze (Lolita) and Shelley Winters as Charlotte Haze with Peter Sellers as Clare Quilty.

Due to the MPAA’s restrictions at the time, the film toned down the more perverse aspects of the novel, sometimes leaving much to the audience’s imagination. The actress who played Lolita, Sue Lyon, was fourteen at the time of filming. This title will also be included in the upcoming Blu-ray/DVD set.
