About the film
What it’s about
Basil Hallward, a painter whose reputation rests more on social standing than talent, meets Dorian Gray, a young man of striking beauty. Dorian becomes obsessed with his own painted portrait and cannot accept that he will age while the picture remains unchanged. Consumed by envy of his own image, he wishes the portrait would bear the marks of time and experience in his place.
What hooks you
Pierre Boutron directs this adaptation of Oscar Wilde's novel, with Raymond Gérôme as Lord Henry Wotton and Patrice Alexsandre as Dorian Gray. The cast also includes Marie-Hélène Breillat as Sybil and Denis Manuel as Basil Hallward.
Who it’s for
It is worth a look for anyone who enjoys slow-burning fantasy with a philosophical edge, where beauty and morality intertwine.
