This paper aims at analyzing the relation between Vladimir Nabokov s novel Lolita (1955) and Stanley Kubrick s and Adrian Lyne s film adaptations of the novel, the former released in 1962 and the latter in 1997. We will base our study on French semiotics, also known as greimasian semiotics, to analyze the effects of meaning created by the different actantial roles played by the narrator, Humbert Humbert, in the novel and the strategies used in the filmic discourses to create the same effects in certain sequences in order to honor the original work or, on the contrary, to create different effects in order to revise it in some aspects, adapting it to their target audience, which was different from the one which had only had contact with the book because they lived in a different time and had expectations of how the movies would treat controversial subject matters that had been raised in the novel.
