In a 1996 interview, actress Sue Lyon discussed her experience playing the titular role of 'Lolita' in the 1962 cinematic adaptation of the Vladimir Nabokov novel: ‘My destruction as a person dates from that movie. Lolita exposed me to temptations no girl of that age should undergo. I defy any pretty girl who is rocketed to stardom at 14 in a sex nymphet role to stay on a level path thereafter’.
