Sue Lyon and Blanche Baker were gorgeous in different ways as Lolita.
But that doesn't make understanding the issues involved easy for anyone.
I am only going to identify the 44 year old guy under arrest in Florida for firing shots into a bedroom by the one initial M.
M believed he was shooting at a man who had been in bed naked with M's teenage daughter was in that bedroom.
As I understand it, M called the police.
Now M is under arrest.
Formally, he should get the presumption of innocence.
Some people will see him as a hero.
Others the reverse.
He is in for a very tough time.
And his daughter? She seems very innocent. Was she 19 or 13? That makes a huge difference to her adult capacities.
Had their ever been anything like flirting between her and the naked man in her bed?
Many questions.
Perhaps the most important thing for me to close off with in those post is a reminder that we human beings make mistakes and do not know everything.
Only God is perfect.
We just do the best we can.
All of us can make mistakes.
Especially when drunk.
I don't drink.
May God Bless Freedom And Help Us Use It Well.
Has nothing at all to do with Lolita.
What the hell did I just read?
Good post.
As a mother, here are my thoughts:
Guy got into his OWN bed naked.
Guy got up to pee and wasn’t thinking..... wandered into the hallway, into the bathroom and peed.
Guy walked (drunk, remember?) into the wrong room and flopped unto the bed in a stupor.
Teen age girl woke up and told Dad.
Now, Dad (most likely drunk, too) reacts without thinking it through.
Daughter did indeed NOT given any sign or indication she had even been touched and this is SO IMPORTANT.
Dad, though, as I said was most likely drunk/hungover and not thinking clearly gets his gun/rifle and fires into the DOOR when the previously mentioned drunk guy is probably now in bed with his own wife.
Dad then calls the cops.
Where was mom?
Drunk and naked guy would probably have been embarrassed beyond belief in the morning. His wife would most likely have been been angry as a wet-hen at him and this teen age girl’s dad could not even begin to make other guy’s life hell-on-earth like a pissed of wife........
Most I would do as a mom? Ask them to leave the house because of the extreme drinking. And yeah, give Dad an earful because he was part of the extreme drinking which lead up to the whole mess.
Didn’t see anything about a mom in the article, though. I may have missed that part. Just my thoughts.
Shit does happen. Weird as it is, it does happen.
Weird stuff does happen, yes.
Some of it can be excusable. Some of it may not be. Depends.
Try being around identical twins awhile. Like, dating one.
Was not the room that he fired into (through the door) a different room than the daughter’s room? My take on this is the drunken fool shot theough a door, into a room occupied by his husband and wife boarders. Not cool.
Author is a worse writer than Nabokov.
Bunch of gibberish.
But I think we can all agree that 15-year-old Sue Lyon was too young to be involved with 33-year-old James B. Harris on the set of Lolita.
Basically screwed her up for life, like so many other young girls in Hollywood. Harris never faced any consequences for his statutory rape.
This may give you some needed information.

“I don’t drink.”
That’s good to note up front, but you’re definitely going get some “don’t drink and post” comments anyway.
“Try being around identical twins awhile. Like, dating one.”
Ok, I’m game, sign me up.
What?
Yeah, there’s a point where “method acting” goes too far.
Sue Lyon was gorgeous. Blanche Baker was slutty.
Remakes.
Esther Rolle, hell of a woman.
As far as dog breeds go, it’s hard to beat a lab.
Chocolate or yellow both good like cake.
Had a friend in high school taught himself the fiddle.
Couldn’t drive a stick though.
Udon noodles seem undercooked sometimes even when they’re just right.
Can’t really explain gravitional lensing without a coke bottle analogy.
Squids are very intelligent.
Thank God they don’t have thumbs.
John was asked what it was like being married to a twin, how did he know which was his wife?
He replied “My wife wears nail polish and her twin brother Bill has a beard”

this writing might be similar to Dylan at his
Nobel prize winning best
I tried to figure that out and gave up after 30 seconds
