She was portraying a 14-year-old, but was actually 16 when the film was made.

There is no nudity in Kubrick’s Lolita. Sex between Humbert and Lolita is only hinted at. The subject matter is possibly even more controversial today than it was when it was made, but the film is actually tame by today’s standards.

The Lolita as written by Nabakov in his novel is 12 years old.

@Blake

In contrast, Brooke Shields appeared fully naked at the age of 12 in “Pretty Baby”. Since she was playing a child prostitute, and one of the nude scenes involved her being “inspected” by a client who she later has sex with, it’s hard to argue that the scenes weren’t sexualised.

Nonetheless the movie remains legal and freely available throughout the western world. So the odds of a nude still of a 13 year old being illegal seems fairly remote.
