An actress who won a significant dose of notoriety
for her title role in Adrian Lyne's 1997 adaptation
of Lolita, Dominique Swain had the dubious honour
of being caught up in the scandal of her feature
film debut. Thanks to the content of the film
— which, unlike Stanley Kubrick's earlier version
of Nabokov's novel, emphasized its more explicitly
sexual aspects — Lolita had great difficulty finding
a U.S. distributor and was effectively consigned
to video store shelves. However, many of the critics
who did see the film were impressed with Swain's
performance, remarking that she more than held
her own opposite such seasoned costars as Jeremy
Irons and Melanie Griffith. (Full Bio ....)
