Thread Starter 
The list will start appearing today after 7:00 AM EST.

It will appear slowly but surely in a post by post order.
I have received the blurbs, and will edit them into the selections shortly.

I hope everyone has had fun so far.

I'll post a discussion thread for the List shortly.

This thread is for the CHUD AFI List alone.

96) Lolita (1962)

Muncie Girl on Lolita (1962):

"A mercilessly wicked black comedy with no pity for its characters. The story maintains its youthful naughtiness thanks to human nature itself."

****Special Exemption****

The AFI rules this an American/British co-production, so it can be considered an American or a British film. I had to e-mail the AFI to determine whether I should disqualify this flick or not. They said it can be considered American...so it's in.
