“Colin Firth is perfect as the devils advocate, as this adaptation of 19th century gothic taps into the modern zeitgeist.”  FILMINK

Fresh-faced and innocent, Dorian Gray (BEN BARNES) arrives in London to move into the house he has inherited. Almost immediately he falls under the influence of amoral and calculating Lord Henry Wotton (COLIN FIRTH), leading to a life of increasing debauchery and even violence. Through many years Gray stays as young-looking as ever, while a portrait painted when he arrived grows old, reflecting his increasing excesses. Eventually the picture, now secreted in his attic, becomes almost hideous to behold. When true love finally enters his life he realises he must guard his secret at all costs.
