      Dorian Gray--Too Simple And Too Naive

      Exchange youth with a painting. This idea is as imaginative as time travel. It's a pity that these two fantasy journeys, which I had high expectations for, were ruined. Dorian's fall is called "a speed," and no one has seen it at an outrageous level. And with Chi Guoguo's prostitution upper body, do human desires only have such a future? What a waste of a great opportunity for this gorgeous adventure. And our...

      Some things may be short-lived, but they can be precious.

      Although some things are short-lived, they can be precious.

      The story takes place in London in the Middle Ages, and people are enjoying the life brought by the Industrial Revolution. The

      material life is rich and even flooded. People are not only pursuing material things. Rising to the spiritual level.

      The protagonist Dorian Gray inherited his grandfather's legacy and came to London.

      In the upper class society, dances, ladies, and famous wines were all...

      beautiful to sigh

      Remaking a famous book into a movie is always risky because of preconceived notions. Like Wilde's "The Picture of Dorian Gray." Although there are many copies of the plot, the ideas embodied have changed, mainly because the value orientation has changed. Especially after adding a tragic childhood and a bloody love ending.

      For example, Dorian's first love Sybil was always in chaos. In the novel, Dowling fell in love with Sybil's character, Juliet, Rosaline, Imogen and Ophelia, Dorian....

      Dorian Gray

      8.7-11 Portrait of Dorian Gray ★★★★★Dorian
      looks pretty good, with those pale fingers, especially in the sun.
      Wow, this book was absolutely crazy in the 19th century, but now, 200 years later, technology understands a lot of things.
      Dorian also consistently reflects Wilde's thoughts, the eternal pursuit of beauty. Things are praise of not everlasting.
      Everyone is getting old except Dorian. He is against nature.
      Time has really changed so many things. Henry Dorian.......

      Fallen Redemption Youth Humanity Eternal Social Class Temptation

      In fact, the fall
      of a person stems from the fact that one does not gain respect for the law through teaching, and happens to meet someone who is good at beautifying things that are despised. No matter whether there is a devil or not, the fall itself is unavoidable. People who grow up need to look for what kind of people to work with. This is worth thinking about!

      The main plot of the redemption
      film is how a person falls and how he is redeemed. Falling is easy and...

      The beauty of marriage is that it makes deceit a necessity of life, conscience is just a polite word for cowardice, and no educated man regrets it for pleasure... The film promotes a lot of depraved lines , intended to show the world Wilde's novel that analyzes the ugliness of human nature and tries to cover it...

      Another bad movie from my uncle. Wilde's novels focus on heretical ideas. The stories are a bit allegorical, and even have the purity of fairy tales, or at least they are relatively fresh. This film is not very good at expressing heretical ideas. Instead, the story is particularly evil, emphasizing pornographic violence, and the telling process is often very abrupt, lacking rhythm, and it's too bad. If you want to see a single man, I believe that one will be...

      "The Picture of Dorian Gray" is a work of genius, and any adaptation that goes against the original is only foolish and blasphemous. I especially don't like that disgusting picture, the dog-tailed mink and the handsome guy's stupid goose performance... Both stars are dedicated to the beautiful boy who looks more and more...

    Colin Firth, who played against Harrison Barnes in the film, after watching a few "Dorian Gray" stage plays and movies, Feith thought: Harrison Barnes is the best Dorian Gray.
    For the role of Dorian Gray, director Oliver Parker's consideration is different. The reason why he chose Ben Barnes to play Dorian Gray is because: first, they are similar in age, both in their 20s; second, Harrison Barnes is tall And the image is in line with...

    "Dorian Gray" has found a perfect balance between art and business, horror and art. The film is neither vulgar nor obscure  . " ("Complete Movie" Magazine Review)
    "Dorian Gray" is not completely adapted from the original work, but a lot of new content has been added. The most obvious difference may be the many flashbacks inserted in the film. They showed the audience the terrible childhood that Dorian Gray experienced and enhanced the...
