Synopsis:
Dorian Gray is a young man of unmatched charm and natural beauty. On seeing a portrait of himself, he declares he would give anything for the picture to age instead of him. Thereafter, guided and misguided by the philosophies of his friend Lord Henry Wotton, he embarks on a life of sin and decadence - during which he does not age a day, but the image in the portrait becomes crooked, aged and depraved.
