About Me

Lolita of the Classics: 24 years of agony and brilliance. That undiscovered genius of a hard, filthy employee with ugly working clothes. Personality: Kind of split. Mix a lazy and anti-social nerd with a sensual bon vivant, and there you have me. Lolita's Classics: reviewing old, really old and, once in a while, new classics (and non-classics). A mess of sometimes naïve admiration, sometimes cynic spite for films ranging from the 1890's to the 2010's. I may accidentally slide away from the film subject altogether in order to just combine vowels and consonants at random. In a highly intellectual way, of course.

"Even unarmed, Rathbone was sharp and dangerous, a cruel dandy. The inverted arrow face, the razor nose, and a mustache that was really two fine shears stuck to his lips. Ladies looked fearfully at him, knowing that one embrace could cut them to ribbons."

- David Thomson on Basil Rathbone
