Still a very controversial film

June 13, 1962
Stanley Kubrick’s take on Vladimir Nabokov’s controversial novel, Lolita, premiered on this date.

Stanley Kubrick held a special screening for Vladimir Nabokov a few days before the film’s premiere. It was at this time the author learned that most of his screenplay had been jettisoned, but he reported himself very happy with the finished picture, praising Kubrick, and the cast.
