While attempting to romance young “nym- phet” Dolly Haze (Sue Lyon), middle-aged pro- fessor Humbert Humbert (James Mason) must contend with her mother’s (Shelley Winters) advances and a mysterious rival suitor. Over- whelmed by passion, Humbert’s actions lead to a shocking and tragic conclusion. Peter Sell- ers also stars in this film that netted Nabokov a Best Adapted Screenplay Oscar nomination (however, although the author was officially credited with the screenplay, most of what he wrote was actually eschewed in favor of rewrites by Kubrick and producer James B.
