Poor Wilde. Aside from the bland Ben Barnes version, this Duncan Roy version is a mockery towards EVERYTHING Wilde had to go through just to publish Dorian Gray alone. From ignorant people opressing him because of his sexuality to dealing with other writers, all he ever wanted to create was wonderful literature The fact that the movie directors and the media don't respect that is disgusting. R.I.P Sir Wilde. You're Loved and Missed by me and all who feel the same. AMEN.
@stalkingyourmomm it's a FANTASTIC book! i recommend it! please dont watch this movie, it has nothing to do with the book...this is horrible O.O! There are other movies based on the book out there which are better :)! As for the book....do read it! :D
I want to see it. I am on a quest to watch every English 'Dorian Gray' movie. Anyone with any info that would help me find this movie, I would be SUPER grateful... I've been looking forever to no avail.
This movie was sweet! If you want to see the whole movie for free in great quality Just google yslides and the site should pop up. Yslides is where I watched this movie and didn't have any problems at all. I would just put the website address, but I don't want youtube to mark my account as spam. LOL
@dgresource. Where can i get/buy the movie? Where did you find it? I searched evrywhere. I already have watched every other "DORIAN GRAY" movie, exept this one. My Collection isn´t complete without it.
maybe the trailer was put together terribly but since I don't worship any movie actor/actress - let alone general no-name actors, this trailer looks like a really bad drama B-flick.
Cliche after Cliche.
If you want people to watch a movie at least make it look good in the trailer. I will NOT be wasting 20+ dollars to see this in the theater.
@sherryenea18:"who cares if the movies crap david gallagher is hot as 200 degree weather" - I care. Watching bad movies is like eating at a restaurant because you know they spit in your food.
Plan 9 from Outer Space is terrible, and I still watch it. lol Just ribbing you. :) Sometimes i like to watch movies cause they are bad, depends if they are painfully bad or haha bad. :) But this DOES look terrible, an update of The Picture of Dorian Gray? That just sounds like a train wreck and it looks like one too, but I agree David Gallagher is hot. :)
Hell this is the modern adaptation of Dorian Gray LOL. At first i thought this was a home made video or something lol. But now I remember reading about this one. They tried to make this too modern and even made Basil Hallward a woman!
Thank God there's the real Dorian Gray movie being made atm with Ben Barnes as Dorian! Its gonna be really cool!!!!
Yeah I think Oscar Wilde wouldn't be pleased that Basil is a woman. I mean it sort of ruins nearly half of the homoeroticisms in the book. It changes it completely! And I mean if it's modern, it should be more accepted right? Silly producers.
Yes, you are completely right. the book is simply a diary of wildes personal emotions. yes ,i admit it could make since with a woman because the same jealousy of dorians youth could be betrayed . and not forgetting the lust. but the one reason this book is so amazing is because of the hidden homoeroticism of oscar wilde. how dear they take that away. im on the edge right now. my emotions have taken over my ability to make clear since.
'Hidden' homoeroticism in Wilde? Come on, imagine how you would feel if two older men were acting and talking around you like that.
If he were alive today I do not think he would have written more openly about his sexuality than in this book. He had more class than that as an artist.
Dorian Gray could surely work in a modern setting, but (looking just at the trailer) that film is....not enough for Wilde's awesome story. I just don't like the actor, the locations (those I have seen)...everything. Being maybe too sincere, it's far to the book and near a crap [sorry but that is my favourite novel and I simply don't accept something like that]
It's like "OMG...Dude you can be like too cool like 4ever!" and D's like "Yeah" and like....so...
What crap!
Is it not too much to expect that people can still READ the original story - or, at least put down the iPhone long enough to follow a few paragraphs...
Please i know ask you of youtube to give this comment a thumbs up if you belive people need to stop adapting and basing shit off of beloved classic. Thank you.
BTW, I'm remaking Moby Dick, only instead of the sea the action takes place in a virtual e-commerce store, and instead of a Whale, Moby Dick is going to be the new iPHone. Give me $30K and I'll make you famous.
i have not seen this.. BUT based on the trailer... if they wanted to make a modern version like they did Romeo & Juliet FINE but they should have kept it a gay story
Why on earth someone would feel the need to take a work of art and utterly crucify it in such a heartless and merciless fashion as to modernize it is completely beyond me. The social context of the Victorian era is of vital importance to the entire plot- Wilde touched on many issues besides the basic 'vanity'/'cruelty' shown here. Any fool could write about that. Clearly, someone has grasped the wrong end of the stick here. Do your research, whoever you are, I implore you!
Despite the obvious of this being a poorly done adaptation, I don't think that means that Dorian Gray could not work in a modern setting. Many conventions from the Victorian era still reign today in America from those that cling to the traditional puritan values. It's all about setting and character and perhaps a little more creative license.
Well, perhaps its not the idea of modernizing it because it can't be done that irritates me, but more because I find it entirely unnecessary. Why do we need a modern version when the original is perfect? It almost seems an insult to suggest that a modernization is necessary, but perhaps I'm just being a little overprotective...
Hi, I'd love to see this movie, as I've noticed a lot of different critics on the internet, but unfortunately I can't find it anywhere to download. Would someone be that nice and give me the link or sth? Thank you ^_^
Oh, well... "Refreshing" of classics may be a good idea, it makes some young people able to understand them better - or makes teens interested in this one particular movie at least. But there's just one condition - directors, please, THINK before you do sth like that!
(Gamenorus, I as a Wilde's reader never pictured Dorian as a gangster boy xDD)
Wait, Americans are those stupid, fat and arrogant people that leave in complete denial of whats going on to the rest of the world ? Bin laden ? Where are u man ? Cmon !!?
Wow... I guess you can do whatever you like and then call it a work of art these days. What does it matter that you are dancing on the grave of a masterpiece?
I remember seeing the Black and White version on TV and it stills scares the crap out of me!! The picture at the end of the movie, made me sick for days.
Ok for staying young forever, do what the vampire family in Twlight did, move to another town, country every 10 years.
Oh dear god, why have the Americans butchered this book by Oscar Wilde. This is a classic 1800's British book, this film is criminal to the book, for shame!
Unfortunately that's the american way of showing appreciation: screwing it up on a condensed pile of stupidity, so that every (grown up) eight-year-old yankee boy can smile and say: "Indeed a masterpiece of the genre!"
No wonder still nowadays the best english language writers are not american... Nor will ever be.
(PS: Did any of Wilde's readers ever picture Dorian as a gangster boy??)
Okay this sucks! I always thought they should make a move of the book. It's my favorite book ever. But this movie just sucks. God... I hope they're gonna make a remake and a BETTER one.
just thought you might like to know, there have actually been quite a few adaptations of the novel, although many are older films. However, they are closer to the book.
Hahaha, I recently read the book, I consider it a masterpiece, really, It´s a great story. And I think it´d be a good idea to make a movie about it that takes place in our time, but I didn´t like the trailer, sorry.
I agree; I'm glad Oscar Wilde isn't here to see this. Frankly, I'm embarrassed by it. I don't like how they tried to "modernize" it or whatever, and I hate the fact that they got such mediocre actors, especially the one they got to play Dorian Gray.
I love this book and it's such a shame to see these crappy modern movies based on such a great piece of art.
it is interesting...btw I did not get that ridicilous comment about gay stereotypes. You think gay people like it? It is because of homophobic people that such stereotypes exist.
speaking of something a little more serious(& off topic) i need to confess that i can get p*ssed off at gay ppl sometimes. And this is probably not even their fault, but i feel this whole gay thing has reached to such extremity, that you can no longer behave in certain ways because of the stereotypes existing in the society! People automatically assume you are gay because you may "resemble" someone who SEEMS "gay". I think even Oscar Wilde would've found this sh*t ridiculous. LOL
looks whiny and lame, why can't they have the guy stay young and fuck and have fun pretty much forever? why spoil it by making it all stressful n whiny?
Hm, I think a Dorian Gray movie should be chock full of insanely gorgeous guys. As it is... that guy is just okay-looking. Probably not even good-looking enough for the real Dorian Gray to "ruin the repuation of." :D
when i read oscar wilde's dorian gray, i imagined dorian gray to be a good looking young man like........ WILLIAM BECKETT. no offense to barnes' fans out there..besides, ben barnes is quite a look alike of beckett. so i guess he's fine..
It would have been cooler if he was insanely good-looking, as he apparently was in the book. Since he's average-looking I don't see much point in him being young or old.
Guys, this is NOT the same version that Ben Barnes will be in. This version was already released a few years ago, I think, and the Ben Barnes version will be coming out in November of next year.
Wow, The original movie (the one in Black and White) That was a great movie. However, I think I may have to pass on this one. NOTHING Like the Original.
i love the book,i think it was brilliant, and oscar wilde is a complete genius,... i love dorian gray, uhm i thik david gallagher is cute but i dont think this film would justify the book, my apologies, er no dorian isnt gay if you have read the book, then you would know that....
Basil certainly had romantic feelings for Dorian. He confesses to Dorian when he asks why Basil didn't want to exhibit the portrait. Basil doesn't say "I love you" outright but the narrative makes it clear that it was a confession of romance.
I swear Dorian's bi because throughout the whole movie there are undertones of him being involved with both men and women. I think this book was actually used as evidence in Oscar's trial before he went to prison. :(
actually when they published it he had to take out a lot of the homosexual undertones. Also, if that girl who slammed her fist into the mirror was Sybal Vane then that would be an interesting twist on how she died in the book. This movie looks kinda cool.
From what I can see, this is nothing like my favourite novel.
The only part of this trailer that is obviously from the book is when Dorian buries the gun.
But, he doesn't even use a gun, and that is the scariest part of the whole book, and I can see they've wrecked it! I'm really pissed off about this, they should leave these kinds of books alone.
This is not the real trailer....clearly fan made. Or it may be from a movie from a long time ago....i think you may be waiting for the film staring ben barnes due to come out next year i think?? the trailer for that has not been released. so there is hope yet
Victoria era... modern... contemporary. it does not matter... when their image is the only thing a person feels they have to offer.. become possible? then to add any consequences being added into that image only you see... then why, really, would someone who valued image question the morals of something inanimate reaping the consequences...

it is interesting...btw I did not get that ridicilous comment about gay stereotypes. You think gay people like it? It is because of homophobic people that such stereotypes exist.

yeah...I love Josh Duhamel being Dorian Gray. This will ruin the charm of the book.

speaking of something a little more serious(& off topic) i need to confess that i can get p*ssed off at gay ppl sometimes. And this is probably not even their fault, but i feel this whole gay thing has reached to such extremity, that you can no longer behave in certain ways because of the stereotypes existing in the society! People automatically assume you are gay because you may "resemble" someone who SEEMS "gay". I think even Oscar Wilde would've found this sh*t ridiculous. LOL

I like the actor who's playing it in the upcoming film, Ben Barnes. That's just my opinion.

What the hell have they done to the book??
In any case, I think Johnny Depp is the real Dorian Gray. Seriously, that guy just doesn't age.

Hm, I think a Dorian Gray movie should be chock full of insanely gorgeous guys. As it is... that guy is just okay-looking. Probably not even good-looking enough for the real Dorian Gray to "ruin the repuation of." :D

when i read oscar wilde's dorian gray, i imagined dorian gray to be a good looking young man like........ WILLIAM BECKETT. no offense to barnes' fans out there..besides, ben barnes is quite a look alike of beckett. so i guess he's fine..
beezkit32 3 years ago
It would have been cooler if he was insanely good-looking, as he apparently was in the book. Since he's average-looking I don't see much point in him being young or old.

Guys, this is NOT the same version that Ben Barnes will be in. This version was already released a few years ago, I think, and the Ben Barnes version will be coming out in November of next year.

Wow, The original movie (the one in Black and White) That was a great movie. However, I think I may have to pass on this one. NOTHING Like the Original.

There are homo-erotic undertones to the characters of Basil and Lord Watton, but no, Dorian isn't gay.
jethrojtt 3 years ago 5
is basil gay for dorian? that is what i thought at the beginning but changed my mind later on.
kryptonian24 3 years ago
Basil certainly had romantic feelings for Dorian. He confesses to Dorian when he asks why Basil didn't want to exhibit the portrait. Basil doesn't say "I love you" outright but the narrative makes it clear that it was a confession of romance.
chamomille 3 years ago 6
really? i never thought of basil like that..
beezkit32 3 years ago
I swear Dorian's bi because throughout the whole movie there are undertones of him being involved with both men and women. I think this book was actually used as evidence in Oscar's trial before he went to prison. :(
HGUFNH 3 years ago
actually when they published it he had to take out a lot of the homosexual undertones. Also, if that girl who slammed her fist into the mirror was Sybal Vane then that would be an interesting twist on how she died in the book. This movie looks kinda cool.

From what I can see, this is nothing like my favourite novel.
The only part of this trailer that is obviously from the book is when Dorian buries the gun.
But, he doesn't even use a gun, and that is the scariest part of the whole book, and I can see they've wrecked it! I'm really pissed off about this, they should leave these kinds of books alone.

This is not the real trailer....clearly fan made. Or it may be from a movie from a long time ago....i think you may be waiting for the film staring ben barnes due to come out next year i think?? the trailer for that has not been released. so there is hope yet
mzblonde92 3 years ago
No, it's definitely real. It's up on the official site and everything. It does look severely fan-made, though.
