| Lolita [+ favourites]
3.7/5 A movie about a step dad that screws his daughter. Although very atypical in that it watches like a full blown story. Very engaging and uncomfortable at times, but shows a somewhat "epic" look at the whole situation and provides the beginning, middle, and the end, and all are connected with a pretty probable course of events. Has a touch of comedy to it, which keeps it "innocent" - the story isn't about the pedaphilia, it's about the relationship between the man and the girl, and more specifically, the nature of the man. Somehow, however, the main topic which was a man in love with a child was not exploited and realized enough - it was the topic of the entire story yet the nature of that deviant behaviour wasn't really... explored.
