If a Brit, not that horny Nabokov, wrote Lolita, you'd have something along the lines of the film An Education, where a precocious teenage girl turns her nose up at Oxford for a chance at nabbing and shagging a charming older man. The film, which won the Audience Choice and...

If a Brit, not that horny Nabokov, wrote Lolita, you'd have something along the lines of the film An Education, where a precocious teenage girl turns her nose up at Oxford for a chance at nabbing and shagging a charming older man.
