I just watched the Adrian Lyne's film of Lolita for the first time ever last night.
First off, I cannot recommend this film highly enough.
Though I'm likely to draw some flame for this, I have to tell you that in all honestly it is a far superior film to Kubrick's version. While Kubrick made a good film of the novel, Lyne made a great one.

Anyway, what I am wondering is how the 2 DVDs of this film compare. I picked up the newer Lion's Gate Signature Series version and I guess I just want to make sure I picked the right one. Usually the newer version is of better quality, but it's not always the case.
Has anyone seen both and compared the transfers?
