Just finished watching Lolita (1962) by Stanley Kubrick. It’s been sitting on my shelf from Netflix for a few months, along with Sleeper (1973) by Woody Allen, and thought I should knock those two off. Lo was very good, though even without having read the original source material, I can see the finger prints from the grubby mits of the pious and profane censors.

And I don’t want to forget to mention how much Peter Sellers kills in this movie.

I’ve never seen the 1997 version with Jeremy Irons, and I’m not sure when I’ll get around to it. I like seeing multiple versions of a film, but I usually try to space it out a bit. I watched the recent version of Solaris only last winter, and I’m still not ready to see the original.

My last shift at the Fargo Theatre is coming up this Saturday. It ends at 7pm. I won’t cry, but I may go and “celebrate”. Who’s with me?
