The new version is due out later this year I believe.


Directed by
      Adrian Lyne


Cast (in alphabetical order)
      Melanie Griffith
                     .... Mother
      Jeremy Irons
                     .... Humbert Humbert
      Frank Langella
                     .... Claire Quilty
      Katherine Peterson
                     .... Private School Guide
      Dominique Swain
                     .... Lolita


Jeremy Irons seems a good choice, but I'm a bit worried about Melanie
Griffith and Frank Langella filling the respective shoes of Shelley Winters
and Peter Sellers.

This is Dominique Swain's first real work, so we'll give her a chance.
