Beau-pere (1981). 29 year old Remi has been living with Martine and Martine's daughter,14 year old Marion, for the last several years. When Martine is killed in a car accident Marion insists that she be allowed to remain with Remi. Marion's father allows her to do this in order not to disrupt her from her familiar surroundings. Marion and Remi are gradually drawn together emotionally until they do become lovers. In some ways this film bears a striking resemblance to Lolita but in other ways it seems as if the situations are reversed. For example, in Beaue-pere, it is Marion who is the more mature person, with Remi so imature he can't even hold a job or keep food in the house. The film does ask some interesting questions such as when maturity really begins. 34 year old Patrick Dewaere stars as Remi and lovely 15 year old Aaiel Besse Played Marion.
This film won critically aclaim despite the controversy it aroused. It is very well-made and if you like Lolita you will probably like Beau-pere. The film is available in both VHS and DVD, however, I must warn you that in the DVD there is a part where the subtitles get ahead of themselves for about 20 minutes so that you're not sure which character is saying what. This doesn't happen in the VHS version. This is also rather a rare movie so it's rather pricey.The DVD is about $50.00 and the VHS is around $35.00 -

La Petite Sirene (1980). 40 year old garage mechanic George whistles at two 14 year old girls walking by his garage. Isabelle, one of the girls, takes this whistle far too seriously and begins to hang around the garage and also the front of George's apartment hoping George will continue to notice her. George does, but it is because he is angry that she won't stop pestering him. When George finds out about her rough childhood he feels sorry for her and allows her to hang around his apartment. The two become friends but this friendship is gradually heading toward the physical one Isabelle has wanted from the beginning.

An awfully big adventure(1995)

Sixteen year old Stella, who lives with her aunt and uncle, and who has regular and mysterious phone-calls to her mother, joins the crew as an unpaid student.

"She was Lo, plain Lo, in the morning, standing four feet ten in one sock.
She was Lola in slacks. She was Dolly at school. She was Dolores on
the dotted line. But in my arms she was always Lolita. Light of my life,
fire of my loins. My sin, my soul. Lolita" -

Okay I was recently reading a plot description for a movie a few months back, and I can't seem to find it again. Maybe someone can help me out here.
It goes something like this: A woman meets a man and he starts to live with her and her daughter. Her daughter does not approve of this, and resents his presence, but then she starts to fall in love with him.
When I read this, I was like, "Oh My God, I HAVE to see this!" but stupidly, I didn't write the movie down.

She was Lola in slacks. She was Dolly at school. She was Dolores on
the dotted line. But in my arms she was always Lolita. Light of my life,
