Date Sold 9/29/2019Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. A Group of 4 Original Vintage Photographic 35mm Slide (measure 2" x 2" [5 x 5 cm]) (Learn More) Stanley Kubrick's Lolita, the classic 1962 Stanley Kubrick English/U.S. tale-of-a-middle-aged-man-obsessed-with-a-teenage-girl melodrama ("How did they ever make a movie of Lolita?"; "aged for the movie due to censorship problems!"; "For persons over 18 years of age"; "Screenplay by Vladimir Nabokov based on his novel 'Lolita'"; it is very rare for a writer of a great work of literature to also write the screenplay) starring James Mason (as Professor Humbert Humbert), Shelley Winters (as Charlotte Haze), Peter Sellers ("as Quilty"), Sue Lyon (in the title role; billed as "Introducing Sue Lyon as 'Lolita'"), and Gary Cockrell. Note that there was no way in 1962 that Stanley Kubrick could have had a 12 year old girl play Lolita (as she was in Nabokov's novel). So instead he cast Sue Lyon, who was just shy of 16 when the movie was released, and that certainly changed aspects of the novel. The movie was remade in 1997 with Dominique Swain, who was just shy of 17 when the movie was filmed, and it is a virtual certainty that there will never be a movie based on it with an actual 12 year old girl. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that these are studio-issued 35mm slides that are produced by the studio but are not the camera original. Sometimes some or all of the slides have printing on the cardboard holder that gives the name of the movie, a credit for the photographer, and the copyright from the studio (see our images of these slides to know what information, if any, is on the holders). We scanned each of the slides (see our images). This is a very special auction of 366 extremely rare negatives and transparencies of various sizes, and also lots of sets of 35mm slides. EVERY single item in this auction is either "studio issued" (meaning it was created by the studio and sent to theaters and movie outlets), OR it is a "camera original" (meaning it was the actual negative that was in the camera when the photographer took the picture). Every auction clearly identifies which they are, and there are no items being auctioned that are not either "studio issue" or "camera originals". We have divided them by type and size. Also note that this auction is for one or more sets of 35mm slides (some sets are VERY large!), and every one of the auctions of 35mm slides we are currently running have been either photographed in a light box (or in the case of a few titles), up to 4 of the slides have been scanned expertly. If any of the slides were scanned, we have added an "eMoviePoster.com" watermark over it. The winner of this auction and ONLY the winner of this auction will, upon request, be sent the UNWATERMARKED scan(s) of any slides we scanned. However, in the vast majority of cases, we did not scan any slides, and in those cases, we can send the winner of the auction unwatermarked photos of what was on the auction, but we can't send scans of slides we did not scan! Condition: very good to fine. Learn More about condition grades
