Title: Beautifully acted, but very dark story
Review: The acting is superb in this very dark, intriguing adaptation of Oscar Wilde's book, The Picture of Dorian Gray. I thought the actor who played Dorian Gray did an excellent job and had the right balance of innocence and self-absorbed tendencies. I could not watch this movie repeatedly because the plot is depressing and dark, but I think that is typical of Wilde. It's worth viewing, but beware that it is not a sunny, light romantic story, but rather a serious look into what happens to a man's soul when he thinks only of himself and his pleasure.
