Summary
The film, based on the classic novel by Oscar Wilde, Dorian Gray, tells the story of a strikingly beautiful young man named Dorian. He arrives in Victorian London and is swept into a social whirlwind by the charismatic Henry Wotton, who introduces Dorian to the hedonistic pleasures of the city. When a portrait of Dorian is unveiled, such is its beauty that he makes a pledge: he would give anything to stay as he is in the picture - even his soul. "Dorian Gray" examines the destructive power of beauty, the blind pursuit of pleasure and the darkness that can result.
