I think Nabokov hated the popularity of Lolita and how people twisted the story. On the other hand I think Nabokov and Kubrick are like magicians - they would die a thousand times before they told the people that Lolita is inspired from serial killers - HHHolmes and Earle Nelson.
I would of left that video up, but I decided to add some clarification. Seriously I was thinking HH Holmes when I was reading the Foreword. And I'm supposed to believe Nabokov [who plays word games] happen to call Humbert "Humbert Humbert" to justify the use "HH" and he plots a plan to drug and rape a 12 year old, only to tell us that plan failed and Dolores seduced him the next day. And the boy that bonked her first is Charlie Holmes [some random name]... Yeah the fans are not happy.
That's interesting... how would Earle Nelson fit? Kubricks movie is referencing Earle Nelson not HH Holmes. Both are in the book. I think Burke and Hare. Oddly Barbara Burke is the girl watching over Dolores Haze... Haze... Hare (lol) Maybe Haze is Hare?
@@Gershom. I think it's interesting. Like I said on the video I wasn't really sure until I realized Dr. Strangelove character is named Jack D Ripper. What's odd Jack the Ripper a English serial killer is named as an insane American General. I'm planning to explore Jack D Ripper in my next video.
I just read a comment in another video on Lolita saying that Nabokov was also a victim just like Dolores.

So the Lolita fans didn't like the other video huh? 😅

H. H. Holmes has three H’s. H is the eighth letter. 8+8+8=24. Mirrored is 42. 42=2x3x7.

@@tankardoftales4645 IDK. But the distance between Kubrick films and their source material seems to collapse into nodes of hyper-meaning.

@@Gershom. I do enjoy the numbers, thanks.
@@tankardoftales4645 It gets even weirder. Look into the actor who played him.
