Publisher's synopsis:Dorian is a good-natured young man until he falls in with the immoral Lord Henry and discovers the power of his own exceptional beauty. As he gradually sinks deep into a frivolous, glamorous world of selfish luxury, he apparently remains physically unchanged by the stresses of his corrupt and decadent lifestyle and untouched by age. But up in his attic, hidden behind a curtain, his portrait tells a different story. The Picture of Dorian Gray, written in 1891, was adapted for film and released in March 1945 by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. It was directed by Albert Lewin and starred George Sanders as Lord Henry Wotton and Hurd hatfield as Dorian Gray. Book review:Wilde's witty prose, the lurking evil hidden within Dorian and the ominous presence of the painting all work together to create a Faustian-inspired story that you won't soon forget.
